Dear Harrison Families,
It was wonderful to have an amazing, in-person Back to School Night for the first time in 3 years! We hope the entire community enjoyed meeting the teachers of Harrison School who work tirelessly for your children! Thank you to all the parents who attended. I am attaching my Principals message from that night just in case you missed it!
Please remember to have your child wear some sort of purple tomorrow, October 3rd, as we are kicking off our building theme with our Harrison Pep Rally! Our theme is based off of the book, The World Needs More Purple People, and we would like children to wear any article of clothing that is purple (Shirts, socks, hats, etc).
School Pictures will take place on Tuesday, October 11th. Individual and class pictures will be taken on this day. Forms will go out tomorrow with more information. Be on the lookout in your child’s backpack. Picture retakes will be on November 14th.
It's that time of year again for our Apex PTA fundraiser! Apex will be coming to our school on October 10 and will continue to inspire our students to be their best. The program will culminate in a school-wide fun run on October 20th where parents are invited to cheer on their children during the school day. The times for the fun run on Thursday, October 20th are as follows…
8:20-9:05- 2nd Grade

Parents are invited to attend at their child’s time indicated above. The rain date for the event will be on Friday, October 21st.
