Hornet Nation, We are in the midst of formulating a new strategic plan for Harrison Community Schools, and truly value your opinion of how we are doing and our future story.

We have been experiencing a noticeable uptick in the number of our students being diagnosed with Influenza A. This virus spreads mainly by droplets made when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. Flu symptoms can include fever, cough, sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, body aches, headache, chills, tiredness, and sometimes vomiting and diarrhea. Not everyone with the flu will have a fever. If your child is sick, please keep them home to rest for at least 24 hours AFTER their fever is gone without medicine (if they have one) and symptoms have improved or resolved. If you have questions about symptoms or worsening of symptoms, please contact your medical provider.

This week and always, we appreciate our two school counselors! Ms. Morris supports 6-8 graders at the middle school and Hive campuses, and Ms. Houghton supports 9-12 graders at the high school and Hive campuses. School counselors are highly educated, professionally certified individuals who help students succeed in school and plan their career. An integral part of the total education system, school counselors help students form healthy goals, mindsets, and behaviors. With the aid of a school counselor, students learn to develop effective collaboration and cooperation skills, to practice perseverance, to develop time management and study skills, and to learn self-motivation and self-direction habits.

Due to icy conditions, Harrison Community Schools will be closed Friday, January 26th.

Hornet Nation, Thanks so much for your understanding around our cancellation today. Our early morning test drives resulted in a couple of sideways events that included tapping a deer and a snowbank ending. With that in mind, the safety of our students waiting at bus stops and riding buses figured centrally in the decision. Even a two-hour delay would not have significantly helped. At this point, with rising temperatures and salting done by the Road Commission (a big thank you!), we are comfortable with athletic events and/or practices going forward later today. Much appreciation, Judy Walton, Superintendent juwalton@harrisonschools.com

Harrison Community Schools will be closed Thursday, January 25th due to icy roads. Please be safe if you go out.

Congratulations to our January Student Of The Month recipients! Freshman- Alexandre Jansen Sophomore- Jorden Montero Junior- Gabriella' Maull Senior- Megan Farley GREAT JOB HORNETS - Thanks for making our Hive a better place! 🐝💙

Out of an abundance of caution regarding bus safety on the roads later, SPARKS is canceled for tonight, January 23. Afterschool practices are still in place as of now, and we will continue to monitor the weather and the roads.

This month and always, we appreciate our School Board Members: Zachary Driver, Kendra Durga, Therese Haly, James Neff, Chelsea Roland, Betsy Ulicki, and Carrie Whitaker. Individually and together, they play a crucial role in shaping the future of our students, schools, district, and community. #HornetPride
