HCSD Celebration of Excellence

(November 9, 2026) – Tonight, the Harrison County School District proudly recognized the outstanding achievements of our schools during our Celebration of Excellence program.
The celebration began with a special plaque presentation to the Harrison County School Board, recognizing the District's A rating for the 2025-26 school year. HCSD Superintendent William Bentz presented a plaque to the Board members in recognition of their continued leadership, dedication, and support of our students, schools, and district. The plaque will be displayed in the District Boardroom as a reminder of our shared commitment to excellence.
We were also excited to recognize 14 schools that earned an A rating and four schools that achieved a B rating! Each school received a large banner recognizing its accomplishment. These banners represent the hard work, dedication, and perseverance of the students, teachers, administrators, and staff who make excellence possible.
We are equally grateful to our parents, education partners, and community members for the support provided to our schools. Each of you has played a vital role in creating an environment where learning thrives.
