Congratulations to Mrs. Malone on her retirement!
Mrs. Malone began her career 34 years ago at Hedding, during the entirety of her career she has been a highly respected educator. Her unparalleled work ethic and life-long zest for learning has been a model for students. She sets the bar high and her students strive to reach that bar out of respect for Mrs. Malone. Jerri Lynn is a consummate professional, and a leader at school and in our community. Mrs. Malone isn’t going too far. We wish her well in in her part-time retirement and are glad to have her staying on part-time to serve our students and staff. In 2018-2019, she will serve as a part-time instructional coach for K-5 mathematics in our district. Congratulations and “thank you” for your dedicated service.
-Mrs. Andrews and Dr. Curry

May 24th, the last day for student attendance, will be a 2:10 dismissal day.

Congratulations Mrs. Dehority on your upcoming retirement. Mrs. Dehority spent 26 years at Hedding Grade School, not only teaching music, but also choreographing and directing Christmas programs for all K-5 students. Her flexibility, skill and professionalism was also apparent when she was asked to take a fourth grade teaching position for a few years. Fortunately, Mrs. Dehority had the opportunity to finish her career back teaching music, her real passion.
When asked what she will be doing during her retirement she said she was looking forward to more time for giving piano lessons. We wish her the best as she enters the next phase of her life.
-Mrs. Andrews and Dr. Curry
