Congratulations to our Hawk of the Week! Kerensa Smith brings energy and enthusiasm to everything she does!

She makes learning hands-on and exciting for her students and has been instrumental in helping plan an engaging end-of-year social studies civilizations experience. Beyond the classroom, she gives her time to coach Girls on the Run, supports students through LEGO Club, and is always ready to jump into spirit days with positivity and school pride.

Students at Varina Elementary showed the power of kindness and community by donating items to create “Busy Bags” for families at Ronald McDonald House Charities and the Children’s Hospital of Richmond at VCU. Our Henrico Heroes students worked alongside their mentors to sort donations and assemble the bags, helping bring comfort, activities, and smiles to children and families during hospital visits. All busy bags were delivered by Mrs. Phelps on Saturday!
