It's a professional development day for the Harrison Schools staff members! Our students have the day off, but our educators and support personnel are hard at work, focusing on training and collaboration to better meet the needs of all our learners. Harrison High School and Harrison Middle School staff are holding sessions on their respective campuses. Our Kindergarten through 4th Grade staff are meeting at the John Paul Hammerschmidt Conference Center on North Arkansas College's South Campus.
We would like to extend a sincere thank you to North Arkansas College for generously donating the use of their wonderful facility for our elementary staff today! We appreciate your commitment to our community and our schools.

This morning, the entire school community at Forest Heights gave a heartwarming surprise to their counselor, Ms. Black in celebration of her birthday. Staff and students organized an impressive, creative display on the playground with students lined up neatly to form the number 50! When she stepped outside, Ms. Black was greeted with a giant, unified cheer of "Happy Birthday!"
It was a beautiful moment that shows the caring community we have at Harrison Schools. Thank you for everything you do, Ms. Black! We appreciate you!

Mrs. Davis's third-grade class at Forest Heights recently completed an inspiring art project titled "My Future Is So Bright."
The assignment was simple: the students drew their faces wearing sunglasses, and then filled the sugnlass lenses with reflections of their future selves - their aspirations, goals, and ideas for their future.
Their reflections are bursting with possibilities, showing future mechanics, writers, artists, photographers, veterinarians, doctors, teachers, childcare providers, chefs, and more. Great job, students!

FYI - the GT Print Shop at both Forest Heights and Skyline Heights are very close to selling out. Each year, our gifted and talented classes raise money for their programs by creating and selling a large variety of unique, fun 3D printed items. This year's Print Shop has been a tremendous success so far, and the community’s support of our students is so appreciated. Just two more days to shop before it closes until next year!!!
