Middle School and High School Families there are still some holes. Can you fill them?
Thanks again to eveyone who has signed up and donated!
We are doing a 90's theme. We could also use some 90's candy to put in the 3 teachers' lounges. I don't have that on a signup sheet.
During Teacher Appreciation Week the parents of Harrisburg are going to feed the teachers lunch. It will be Tuesday, May 5th. We will be serving them beef and chicken tacos. We would also like baked goods all week.

HAPPY ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONALS DAY!!
"School secretaries are the heartbeat of the school. They are the first face you see, the voice that calms a worried parent, and the hands that keep everything moving when the world feels like it’s falling apart." — Peggy Moss, Author and Educator
Our administrative professionals are, without question, the heart of our buildings. We are truly grateful for the way they manage the expected and unexpected events that occur every single day of their school year. What a blessing it is to have such knowledgeable, skilled, and talented individuals leading our Harrisburg School District family. Thank you Cara, LIndsey, Kimberly, Rebekah, Keely, and Ruby! #Bulldawgpride
