UNIFIED SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT PLAN (USIP)
Annually, Colorado public schools are required to update and submit to the Colorado Department of Education (CDE) a plan for improvement of instruction.
Our school's most recent version on file with CDE is available at:

The Henry staff continuously looks at relevant data and makes revisions to the USIP as necessary. The most up-to-date plan is available upon request from the school principal.
