Weekly Update
In 3rd grade, they went on a field trip to the Discovery center and had a great time. The students learned about gravity, electricity, fingerprints and so much more! They represent Harrison well!
Pre-K students have been learning about pets and even adopted "pet fish" to take home! They'll be able to keep them alive since they are plastic! How fun!
Wednesday, February 16th is an Early Release Day!

Attention 3rd-5th Grade Girls
Your girl belongs with GOTR! We will have a GOTR program this spring. We are ready to bring critical social emotional programming to our girls at a time when they need it the most. Teams will have fun while engaging in activities and running games that promote teamwork and empowerment. Lessons are able to seamlessly transition between in-person and virtual practices as needed for inclement weather. It is our responsibility to empower, educate and inspire the next generation of girls.
Now more than ever, our girls need Girls on the Run. Registration fees are on a sliding scale, so families are only expected to pay what they can to join the program.
Program will run March 14 - May 15
