It's "Yellow Day" at Harrison Preschool! This happy day for students is themed around spreading kindness. Yellow Day was inspired by the books "Yellow" and "Gigi's Yellow Garden" by Adam Peterson. A huge thank you to our community partners Davis Buick GMC, Harness Boots & Shoes, Love in Action, and Pippin Wholesale. Their monetary support purchased decorations, snacks, two books for every classroom, and a theme day t-shirt for every student and staff member. Great day for our preschoolers!
Today is National School Nurse Day! What would we do without them??? Students learn best when they are healthy and safe - as well as when they feel connected to their school. School nurses impact all of these areas - and therefore play a huge role in our students' health and success. THANK YOU, SCHOOL NURSES!
Huge shout out to our community partners Wabash Wood Products for providing 185 lovely custom made wooden boxes for our 2024 seniors!
Our 2024 Harrison High School Senior Breakfast was held this morning at Goblin Arena Mezzanine. Seniors enjoyed a great breakfast provided by North Arkansas Regional Medical Center.
