Herndon Homecoming Parade

It's that time of year again!  Join us for a fun morning defending last year's title of Best in Parade!  The parade theme this year is "Into the Future," and we'd love for you to register to walk with us.  We're planning to march in the parade wearing bright neon colors because "our future is so bright!"  To register to walk in the parade, fill out the flyer in your Thursday folder or visit  https://herndonespta.com/events/homecoming-parade/.  If you have any questions, contact coordinator Jaime Graham at jagraham@fcps.edu.


Bee the Hive Fundraiser

This is beginning of our fourth annual “Bee the Hive” No-Fuss Fundraiser. All the money raised will go directly to fund programs that help our students!  We also encourage you to see if your employer offers a matching grants program. The PTA will be collecting donations through Friday, November 1.  Contributions are tax-deductible, and letters verifying your donation can be provided upon request.   

Bee the Hive funds are be used to pay for:

  • Cultural and educational assemblies and family nights
