Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year at Henderson Elementary School, the home of the Eagles!

Our vision is to partner with students, parents, and staff. It truly takes a village to raise a child, and together with our Cheyenne community, we are dedicated to achieving this goal every day. As the Henderson staff recognizes our students' starting points, we work diligently to help them grow every day, setting the foundation for our success. It is vital that we establish and nurture a culture where our students strive to be the best they can be.

We envision our school as a safe and respectful environment that promotes open communication, collaboration, and cooperation. We are making significant strides to ensure that every student receives ample exposure to essential learning standards, along with multiple opportunities throughout the year to demonstrate their proficiency.

The Henderson staff is excited to have you join us on this journey. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or need assistance. My door is always open.
