Support your local HEROES
The Adopt A Teach
er foundation has teamed
up with Heppner Elemen
tary School to begin a new
program similar to the old
SMART (Start Making A
Reader Today) program.
This new program will be
called HEROES (Heppner
Elementary Reading Or
ganization for Every Stu
dent).
Currently the orga
nization is assisting in the
funding of a new elementary
reading program for Hep
pner Elementary School.
Prior to this time and for
the past seven years, Hep
pner Elementary School
participated in SMART. The
SMART program served
35 to 42 elementary school
students in kindergarten
through grade three. Each
student was paired with a
volunteer for a 30-minute
session in which the child
received one-on-one at
tention to boost the child’s
reading skills. The program
not only increased reading
test scores for Heppner El
ementary students, it created
a vested interest the students
and their reading success in
the community.
SMART was a non
profit group that supplied
funding for one facilita
tor for the school. The fa
cilitator's job was to train
volunteers and pair them
with students. It was a great
disappointment to learn in
April of 2008 that SMART
was canceling funding for
the program at Heppner
Elementary School. At that
point the Morrow County
School District was unable
to supply funding to keep
the program.
Heppner Schools
Adopt-A-Teacher was de
signed for just such situ
ations. It will contribute
$4,000 toward to'keep the
current facilitator employed
during the 2008-09 school
year. It will coordinate oth
er fund raising efforts to
raise an additional $1,000
to $3,000 needed to keep
and even expand the current
reading program. The new
program will be called HE
ROES, Heppner Elementary
Reading Organization for
Every Student. HEROES
also plans on keeping the
current SMART program
facilitator, Barbara Moore.
The H ep p n er
Schools’ Adopt-A-Teacher
is an Oregon non-profit
corporation, which incor
porated March 11,2003. Its

booths and activities at the
Morrow County Fair, Hep
pner St. Patrick’s Day cel
ebration, and assisting with
serving snacks to cyclist at
the Cycle Oregon tour. Addi
tionally, the group sponsored
a Buy-A-Brick fundraiser.
For a donation, engraved
bricks were purchased and
inlaid in the sidewalk at the
new Heppner Elementary
gymnasium building. On
the average, the group has
organized four fundraisers
a year.
However; as with
all new programs, fund-
irig for this new program
is desperately needed. We
are currently researching
grants and other money
making ventures, but money
and volunteers are needed.
There will be a booth at
the fair with handouts and
pamphlets available to all
who are interested in learn
ing more. You can contact
any of the Adopt-A-Teacher
board members or HES staff
if you have any more ques
tions.
So remember please
support your local HE
ROES.

education opportunities for
students attending Heppner
Elementary and Heppner
Junior/Senior High School.
The members and Board
of Directors recognize that
educational funding in the
State of Oregon has severely
diminished creating a near
crisis loss of programs.
Adopt-A-Teacher was cre
ated to help stem the loss of
programs by raising funds
and targeting staff and pro
grams most in need of fund
ing assistance.
' ’ The'Board ofDirec-
tors is currently made up of
three teachers, one school
district board member and
one parent. Attending the
Adopt-A-Teacher Board
meetings regularly are the
Heppner school-building
principals. With input from
members and advisors, this
group has been successful in
raising funds and identify
ing and being instrumental
in keeping staff and quality
education programs in Hep-
pner’s schools.
The organization’s
