On behalf of the Harrison County School Board and myself, I would like to extend to you a warm welcome to the Harrison County School District.
The uniqueness of this district is reflected in the location of its schools in a variety of large and small communities. Each of these communities possesses a neighborhood atmosphere in which the school serves as a focal point. The culture, goals, and values of each community are respected and valued by school personnel. This appreciation of the community allows diversity; yet parents, teachers, and students across the district share a common focus. Together they work to provide the best education possible for the individual child.
Progress in this district is reflected through a technology enhanced curriculum, which addresses the needs of the individual child, a wide range of extra curricular activities, a diverse and successful sports program, and building programs, which are on-going to meet the ever growing student population. A greater emphasis on education throughout our state is beginning to produce results in the Harrison County Schools. As we strive to work closely with parents, teachers and the community, continued improvements are certainly expected.
