The assembly on Monday morning will be to recognize our first Family of the Month, and it's an awesome family. We are constantly striving to increase family involvement, and we want to recognize families for all that they give to our students, staff, and school.

Please help remind families about our new family night activity on Thursday, BINGO for Books. Free milk and cookies, student leaders calling the numbers, and free Christmas books for prizes.

We have a staff meeting this week and next week. Both will have staff sharing something from Domains 1 or 4, from the teacher evaluation form. These are two of my favorite staff meetings every year. This is a great opportunity for teachers to lead, share, shine. Here is the list of who is presenting this week:

     K, 2nd, 4th, Special Ed, PRC, Music, STEM, and ESL


This document would be good to print, especially if you assist with more than one grade level. Here is the list of Christmas party dates and times for every grade level, including Santa's visit:

This week is both Hour of Code and Inclusive Schools Week, which at Harrison occur everyday. Whether receiving special education services, ESL services, extra check ins during the day with the mentor or counselor, or any other interventions: we include all children with learning and activities. We are an inclusive group at Harrison. Here are two articles that explain a brief overview of these two important items:

Here are pictures from this past week. We had several sharpen the saw activities. We had the Winter Concert, readers' theater performances, Christmas fun, robotics, student leaders making Christmas cards for service, and more. We also recognized November student leaders and November staff Oscars:
