Students that return the sheet on time will be able to participate in a special activity with Mr. Seader. The Kindness Spirit Week Days are:

The Harmon PTO will be selling Valentine Grams now through February 5th. The Grams cost one dollar. Students in Cohort A will receive their Grams on February 9th while students in Cohort B will receive their Grams on February 11th. Since the PTO will need to order products for the Grams, no orders can be accepted after Friday, February 5th. You can drop off your Gram orders, including your dollar for each Gram, in the Harmon office or send them in to your child's teacher. A Gram form can be downloaded by clicking on the headline of this article.

With the NHL getting warmed up and hockey season upon us, we will have a special Red Wings spirit day! Break out your Wings shirt, hat, octopus hat, or just wear something red or white. Cohort A students will have Red Wings Spirit Day on Wednesday, January 20th while Cohort B students will celebrate on Friday, January 22nd. Search your closets and drawers and get ready to cheer on another season of hockey!

For several years, Harmon has had a Science Olympiad Team. It is comprised of third, fourth, and fifth grade students as well as parent coaches. Mrs. Fenn, Harmon third grade teacher, heads up the entire team and coordinates the parent coaches, events, and practices. The final competition will look very different this year, but students will still be able to compete against other school teams (with safety measures in place). The Harmon Team is limited to only 15 students.

Mrs. Fenn will be hosting a Science Olympiad informational Zoom meeting on Wednesday, January 13th at six o’clock in the evening. Third, fourth, and fifth grade families can join the meeting from home, work, or wherever you may be as long as you have Wi-Fi or a smart phone. The meeting will help to explain what Science Olympiad is, the events, and what is required of participants. By clicking on the heading for this article, you will be able to access the additional information that also contains the Zoom link.

Picture Retake Day will be taking place on Monday, January 11th for Cohort A students and also on Friday, January 15th for Cohort B students. This will be for students that would like to have their fall photo retaken, or for any students that missed the fall picture days. Please note that if you are having your child's photo retaken you will need to return the original picture package on your retake day. Retake photos will be completed during the morning on both days.
