We love celebrating our Firebirds for making great choices on the bus!

Our Positive Bus Referrals recognize students who are showing respect, responsibility, and safety while riding to and from school. From kind words to following expectations, these Firebirds are setting the example for others!

Keep up the amazing work—we are so proud of you! ❤️💙

Our Firebirds had an inspiring Leadership Assembly focused on Habit 8: Find Your Voice! 🔥🐦

A huge thank you to Mr. Govero and Mrs. Johnson for sharing their personal stories and showing our students how they discovered their voices and used them to make a difference. Their messages encouraged our students to be confident, lead with purpose, and use their unique strengths to shine.

We are so proud of our Firebirds as they continue to grow as leaders and find their voice each day! ❤️💙

🚒❤️ **Firebird Pride in Action!** ❤️🚒

Today was an unforgettable morning for one of our very own Firebirds! Shelbie West got to ride to school in a **Wentzville Firetruck** after raising money for the **American Heart Association**—what an incredible accomplishment!

Not only did Shelbie earn a super cool ride, but she also made a meaningful impact by helping support heart health and lifesaving research. We are so proud of her leadership, generosity, and commitment to making a difference!

A **huge thank you to Mrs. Bauer** for organizing this once-in-a-lifetime experience for our students—we appreciate all the heart and effort that went into making this so special! ❤️

Way to go, Shelbie—you truly leveled up for a great cause! 🔥💙

Our 1st-grade Firebirds had a hands-on learning experience exploring the layers of the Earth using colorful playdough models! Students carefully built each layer — the crust, mantle, outer core, and inner core — while discussing what makes each part of our planet unique.

Mrs. Eusterbrock’s 4th graders were hard at work using their morphology keys to break apart words and determine their meanings. Students engaged in thoughtful discussions with their peers as they explored words to deepen their understanding of vocabulary.

Our 3rd-grade Firebirds in Mrs. Hughes’ class put their scientist hats on as they experimented with measuring the temperature of water vapor. Students observed how heat changes water and practiced using scientific tools to record their findings.

🎉 Congratulations to Our Very Own Mr. Hoffmann! 🎶

We are proud to celebrate Mr. Hoffmann, our FHE Music Teacher, for being awarded the Dr. Bernard J. Dubray STEM Award Grant!

Engagement was soaring in Mrs. Leach’s 4th-grade math class! Students were using vertical workspaces to solve problems, show their thinking, and make their strategies visible. The room was filled with meaningful student talk as Firebirds explained their reasoning, used evidence to justify their answers, and built on one another’s ideas. When students are up, moving, discussing, and defending their thinking, deep learning happens!

A big thank you to Mrs. Reed, 5th Grade Teacher, and Instructional Coach Dr. Gallia for leading our staff in a professional development session focused on retrieval practices in our ELA classrooms. Their leadership and expertise helped guide meaningful conversations around strategies that support student learning and retention. Opportunities like this highlight the power of collaboration and continued professional learning as we work together to strengthen instruction for our Firebirds.

At FHE, we don’t just teach academics — we grow leaders. 🔥
Our students demonstrate teamwork, integrity, and perseverance throughout the day. Whether in the classroom, cafeteria, or on the playground, Firebirds are leading by example!

When Firebirds face a math challenge, they rise to it! 🔥📊
Through hands-on learning, collaboration, and determination, our students are building strong math foundations every day.

Our 1st Grade Firebirds are building strong math foundations! From solving addition and subtraction problems to explaining their thinking, students are developing number sense and confidence every day. Using hands-on manipulatives, they are modeling their thinking and making math come to life.

Our 4th and 5th-grade Firebirds are diving deep into literacy! From analyzing complex texts to citing evidence and strengthening written responses, students are not only growing as thoughtful readers and writers but also building strong content knowledge across subjects. Through rich discussions, vocabulary development, and meaningful writing tasks, they are deepening their understanding of the world around them while sharpening their academic skills.

Our Kindergarten Firebirds are building strong literacy foundations! From letter-sound recognition to blending and segmenting words, these young readers are working hard every day to grow their skills.

Our Firebirds are working hard to reach their academic goals! From small group instruction to independent practice, students are showing perseverance, focus, and a commitment to growth.

Miss Fank’s class had an incredible time in the library completing a STEAM challenge with Mrs. Lamzik during our STEAM Olympics! Students worked in teams to design, plan, and build creative solutions using the Engineering Design Process.

We loved seeing their collaboration, critical thinking, and leadership skills shine — especially as they practiced synergizing and “beginning with the end in mind.”

Leadership isn’t limited to the classroom; it can happen in any setting, including at home. Leadership starts with small opportunities to lead. Ask your student, “What leadership role could you take on at home?” Their answers might surprise you!
