Educator ONE Kickoff & New Teacher Welcome

Thursday, July 16, 2026 | Academy for Advanced Studies

Be part of something that shapes the future—right here in Henry County.

The Henry County Chamber of Commerce is proud to partner with Henry County Schools to welcome the newest class of educators and employees during the official kickoff of the H.E.A.R.T. O.N.E. (Helping Educators Acquire Resources to Thrive – Orientation for New Educators) program. This impactful, week-long onboarding experience prepares incoming teachers and staff for success as they step into their roles across the district.

On July 16, Chamber members have a unique opportunity to make a lasting first impression. During the opening ceremony, each new educator will receive a branded tote bag—sponsored by local businesses—filled with essential classroom supplies provided through the district’s coordinated efforts.
