Today Mrs. Morris’s third-grade class teamed up with some of Mrs. Cano’s high school art students to start their balloons for the HN version of Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade! Stay tuned, as the parade with both 3rd grade classes will be recorded tomorrow for everyone to enjoy. We can’t wait to see the Polar Bear pride and artistic talent shine in this special Thanksgiving celebration!

Today, the seniors and kindergartners in our CAPS and CRAYONS program spent some quality time together creating a fun Thanksgiving craft and having lunch together. It was heartwarming to see the bonds continue to grow as they got to know each other better. As we head into Thanksgiving, we’re grateful for the friendships forming through this program and for the amazing students who make it all so special. Moments like these remind us how strong our Polar Bear connections truly are!

Look who’s in the classroom teaching today! Mr. Cano is stepping in to teach history classes this afternoon while Mr. Foster enjoys a well-deserved afternoon off. Mr. Foster earned his afternoon off by winning the competition to name Mr. Cano’s monthly superintendent report. His creative idea, Beyond the Ice, was chosen as the winner! Stay tuned for next week, when this month’s edition of Beyond the Ice will be released.

Reminder to marching band students and parents.

Happy Monday!

Last night, Hardin Northern hosted New Bremen for the season opener of high school girls basketball. It was an exciting night of competition! Our varsity team started the season strong with a 48-37 victory over New Bremen-great job ladies! Unfortunately, our JV team fell short with a final score of 7-28, but we’re proud of their effort and determination. Let’s keep working hard and building the momentum throughout the season! Go Bears! Varsity top scorers-Baylie Bacon - 17 pts, Lainey Thomas - 13 pts JV top scorer-Jayna Duncan - 4 pts

Mrs Hackworth's first grade at Hardin Northern read a book called "Gratitude Soup". All week the students wrote what they were grateful for and added to our soup. They learned to be grateful for things big and small.

Attention marching band students and parents!

Today, our Jr. high and high school students who earned All A or A/B honor roll for the first quarter were rewarded with a fun trip of bowling and pizza! They had a fantastic time celebrating their hard work and achievements. Keep up the great effort, Polar Bears-we’re already looking forward to seeing more success in the second quarter. Remember, there’s a special zoo trip on the horizon for those who make the All A or A/B honor roll for the 2nd quarter! Let’s keep it up!

Following the Kindergarten play, the students had the opportunity to learn more about the foods traditionally enjoyed at a Thanksgiving feast. They even got to sample a variety of foods. It was a fun and educational way to celebrate the season, and the kids did a fantastic job!

Today is Substitute Educators Day, and here at Hardin Northern, we want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all of our incredible substitutes. You step in on short notice, bring positivity, and do an amazing job with our students. We truly can’t thank you enough for your dedication and support!
