Science Corner:           Heart Dissection

After learning about the circulatory system, 7th grade students were able to compare and contrast  a real-life example to what was learned in class.  Students were able dissect sheep hearts to trace the path of blood  as well as analyze the form and function of the heart.

Great Job Healy Team!

On Monday, October 26th, CPS released the ratings for all the schools in the district. Our school received 4.9 out of 5.0 points in this ratings. This is second highest score among all K-8th schools in the city (484 schools). This means that our school’s performance substantially exceeds the city standards for academic performance. Being awarded a 1+ rating for both Growth and Attainment is the result of a lot of hard work and dedication in the classroom from teachers and students. This accomplishment is a collective effort and couldn’t be done without the outstanding support and commitment from our students, faculty, parents, and community. Congratulation Healy School – We did it again!

New Photo Visitor Passes

The safety of Healy students, staff, parents and the school community is our #1 priority.  As such, we have purchased a new photo visitor pass system for both the annex and the main building. Beginning Monday, December 7th, the front desk security in both buildings will be taking a picture of each visitor who enters the school building.  This photo will be printed on a temporary visitor pass sticker that all visitors will be required to wear while in Healy buildings. We strongly believe this is going to help us maintain a more secure environment in our school. All visitors are required to complete this process in order to access any of our buildings.
