Last Friday was an early Christmas for many Hennessey teachers when the Hennessey Education School Foundation (HESF) handed out $98,509 in grants to 44 teachers. The foundation also purchased a large poster printer for the Middle School and High School to share.
The HESF started in 1990 to help our teachers fund educational projects and supplies that are fun and exciting for their classrooms. In addition to the teacher grants the foundation offers any graduating Hennessey student up to $20,000 in scholarships. The deadline for scholarship applications is March 1st 2024. Students or parents may also contact the high school counselor, Jill Moery.
