Here at HJS Character Counts!

Welcome to the 2007-2008 school year here at Harrison Junior School. We are looking forward to the upcoming year! We want your child to have a successful year at the Jr. School, and believe that you, along with the teachers, play a key role.  Your role is to continually show interest in and support for your child.  A child who knows that his or her family is interested in and supports the school program will almost always have great success and fewer problems.
We believe in a fair and consistent discipline that encourages students to be responsible for themselves.  At school we try to create a safe environment where courtesy prevails and where respect for others is expected.
Please share with your child's teacher any information regarding his or her special needs that will help us better serve him or her. We believe that communication among parents, students, and teacher is critical in assessing student success.

Don Jostworth
Principal , HJS

 

PTA Fundraisers:
The HJS PTA is collecting bigg's receipts, box tops and empty inkjet cartridges. Just drop them off in the front office. There is also a Papa John's fundraiser night for Harrison Junior School. It is the first Thursday of each month. Just mention when you order that you are part of "School Night" and 20% of your total order will be donated to the PTA.
