6th Grade Students
Hello future Herrick students and parents! Thank you for visiting the Herrick Support Staff Website. There are 7 Downers Grove elementary schools that send students to Herrick after 6th grade. Here are the 7 schools in alphabetical order: Belle Aire, Henry Puffer, Highland, Hillcrest, Lester, Pierce Downer, and Whittier. Their mascots are all shown above. We do not get many students from Hillcrest because most of the Hillcrest students go on to O'Neill Middle School.
Our goal as your Herrick Support Staff is to help you to have two great years at Herrick. We are here to support you with anything you may be struggling with. This could be academic, social, emotional, or family issues. You will find out more about the support services in the fall when you are attending Herrick. This page provides some information about our 6th grade presentations in the spring and our 7th grade Orientation Program called Sneak Preview.
