All Textbooks Must be Pre-ordered
August 13th - at Open House

All textbooks must be pre-ordered for the fall.  HERO textbook orders will be taken at the Open House on August 13th, and beginning August 14th via email.  Please email Leah at: hero.textbooks@gmail.com to place your textbook order.

 All pre-orders received August 13th - September 1st at 5pm will be ready for pick up in the Activity Center at Crossroads on Tuesday, September 3rd between the hours of 10am-2pm. There will be no textbook orders taken on September 3rd, this is for pre-orders only.  Textbook orders received September 2nd-8th by 5 pm will be ready for pick up on the first day of HERO classes, Monday, September 9th.  

NO textbook orders will be filled on the spot.  All textbooks orders must be pre-ordered.  If you come to HERO on Monday, September 9th, and you need to order textbooks, your order will be ready for pick up on Tuesday, September 10.  If you place an order on September 10, you will be able to pick up your textbooks on Monday, September 16. 

This new system will eliminate the long lines and time to double check the order.  No textbooks will be given out to parents or students without full payment.  Make sure you bring your checkbook, money order or cash when you come to pick up your textbook order.
HERO Parent Volunteer Positions Have Changed!
Sign up at Open House
 
There have been updates and changes made to the Parent Volunteer Stations: We have assessed our security needs and we have made some major changes to the volunteer positions.  There will no longer be a hall monitor on the upper and lower levels of the church building.  In place of the hall monitors we will have a roaming (walking) monitor who walks from floor to floor during their entire shift.  

All shifts have been changed from 2 hours to 1.5 hour shifts.  There are 1 hour shifts available for set up at the beginning of the day and clean up at the end of the day. 

We have added another parking lot patrol position at the main church building.  This person will be stationed under the car port by the entry doors to the church Sanctuary.

All volunteers will check in with Jayne Wahlberg before they start their shift.  She will give them an instruction guide for their shift.  Volunteers will also need to sign out with Jayne Wahlberg after they have completed their volunteer shift.  Jayne Wahlberg will be mostly in the church building.  Persons who are volunteering for shifts in the Activity Center will check in and out with Sam Tischler, who will be located in the kitchen of the Activity Center. 

You can down load a copy of the new volunteer sheet by going to INFORMATION on the HERO homepage.  You will find a link to the PDF volunteer form or HERE.

Parking at HERO
 
This is a remember that we have a one way parking system in the Crossroads parking lot on Mondays and Tuesdays when HERO is in session. Cars can only enter the parking lot off Notre Dame Street and must exit the parking lot on Broadway. 

There are designated parking spaces for the teachers of HERO, as well as for the Church staff in near the church office.  All large vehicles including over-sized vans, trucks, SUV's etc. must park in the north side of the parking lot, near the basketball hoops and playground area. This area is also designated for student drivers to park their cars.
