About Us
Welcome to the Homestead Hills Elementary home page. We are pleased to have you visit our site. We are a small school with a student population of approximately 220. We take great pride in being a family friendly school where each student is known by name. We are located near the MS/HS Campus; 849 Husky Trail, Benzonia.
We have an active Parent Teacher Connection that supports our school by hosting multiple events during the school year and raising funds to cover the costs of field trips (so that they are free to our students). We strive to meet each students individual needs.

Students have access to check out books, on a weekly basis, with their class. In order to check out new books, those that were already checked out must be returned. We also have a volunteer librarian, Mrs. Gould who comes in weekly to work with our students.

Some great ideas on some things teachers can use to make sure students who are experiencing a loss feel supported:
- Create a Support Chain - I like this one a lot
- Family Story Tree - Teachers can write memory for student and student can decorate the tree/should only be used if the student initiates
- Remembrance Flower Activity
