Over the past four years, the Henrico Education Foundation's Excellence in Education Celebration has raised over $1.15 million in direct support for our schools. The HCPS community is invited to attend the fifth annual installment of the event on April 10 at the Dewey Gottwald Center in Richmond to celebrate and build on the outstanding projects, initiatives and innovations that HEF has brought to our students.
This year's theme is Heath, Wellness & Workforce Readiness, and as the conversation around health and wellness keeps evolving, it’s more important than ever to help students grow through experiential learning.
The Excellence in Education Celebration will highlight the efforts of HCPS and HEF in preparing students for life — covering everything from physical and emotional health to financial wellness — and the work of students who are engaged in #CareerReady and #LifeReady learning in fields such as practical nursing, sports medicine, pharmacy tech, veterinary science and more.
Join us on April 10, for networking, craft cocktails, small plates and the chance to connect with students, educators and industry leaders. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to engage in conversations that matter, and discover how we can work together to prioritize health and wellness in Henrico County.
