If you have a student at HN that takes medication, inhaler, epi pen, even if they carry with them, please send the completed order form, found on final forms to the office so medication can be dispensed to them or they are allowed to carry the medication. Last year's orders are expired. They are only good for 1 school year and need to be renewed each year.

If you have any questions call Mrs. Stevenson

This week, second grade completed an asking and answering questions escape room. They were given four challenges and had to use their comprehension skills to get to the next part. They all managed to get to the jungle treehouse in the end!

Pep Rally Day at Hardin Northern!

Our school was full of energy today as students came together to cheer on the Bears before tonight’s big game.

Students had a blast with a fun balloon game, and it came down to Riley Newton and Alex Gatchell, but in the end, Alex was crowned the winner!

Now it’s time to keep that spirit going. Come out and cheer on the Bears tonight at 7:00 p.m. at home as they take on North Baltimore. Let’s pack the stands and show our Polar Bear pride!

The second graders have been working on creating super sentences! They completed different activities to build their super sentence skills. Their favorites were unscrambling the sentence and creating a super sentence from a silly picture!

A huge shout-out to our Hardin Northern Ag students for their hard work in assembling the new picnic tables you’ll see around our HN campus!

We now have tables set up by the football concessions area and outside the cafeteria, and they look fantastic. Not only are they a great addition to our campus, but they’ll also be well-used and appreciated by our students and community.
