Early Release Today
Happy Birthday today to: Harlynn Casey, Hailie Harley, and Jenna Harley
Attention Staff and Students! Students, please remember to deposit your LEAD tickets in the grade level bin located in the cafeteria. Teachers don't forget to sign them so that you have a chance to win a prize too! Starting at the end of the month, there will be a prize for the student in each grade level who has received the most Lead Tickets.
Students our school-wide Movement Challenge has started. Movement breaks help students recharge, improve their focus, and prepare to learn. Throughout this competition, classes will be encouraged to take short movement breaks during the day to support both physical and mental wellness. Every time a movement break occurs, a sticker will be placed on your grade level poster that are in the hallways. The Grade level with the most stickers after Friday, February 6 will receive an award. Let’s see who can move the most, stay engaged, and bring the best energy. Game on!
Any WEB leaders who would like to sign up to do announcements, please email Ms. Bryant to get your name added to the list: bryanta@harpercreek.net. You will get an email with the week you are signed up for. Remember to come down to the main office @7:37am during your announcement week!
Attention 2nd-semester 6th-grade band students: Band instrument rental is tonight from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm in the band room.
