Today is an A day

Happy Birthday today to: Cadence Crute, Kasen Kelley, and Charlotte Philpott

Our 7th and 8th Grade Choir! Our Harper Creek Middle School Concert Choir delivered a stellar performance last night! We are so proud of our talented students and grateful for the hard work, dedication, and preparation they put into making the concert a success.

Congrats to the middle school cross country team on the final meet of the season. We raced at Turkeyville for our final league meet against 7 other teams. Boys earned 2nd place, while girls earned 1st! We especially want to celebrate several of our 8th graders who ran their personal bests yesterday: Zach Antes, Andrew Millen, Wyatt Nisevich, and Maggie Herr. Great work on the 2026 cross country season!  

BOOOOOM!  Right at the last day, we busted through the 4,000 LEAD Ticket challenge!  We ended yesterday with 4,393 tickets this month!

You absolutely crushed your goals. You didn't just meet the LEAD expectations—you completely killed them.

Prepare yourselves for an afternoon of frightful fun, spine-chilling spirit, and chaotic energy that will wake the dead. Keep up the monstrously good work, LEAD legends, and get ready for a hauntingly good time!  More details on next Friday's pep assembly to come... buahahaha!

Let’s give a HUGE round of applause to all of our Harper Creek students who took the stage last week in Alice in Wonderland Jr. with What A Do Theatre!

From bringing unforgettable characters to life to showcasing their hard work, creativity, and talent, our students truly made the show a magical experience!

We are so proud of each of you for your dedication, teamwork, and courage to shine on stage. Thank you for representing Harper Creek so well and sharing your talents with our community!

Way to go, Beavers! You were absolutely WONDER-ful!
