Happy summer from Kona and the Stone family.
Our sweet Kona can’t wait to meet his Harlan family! ❤️🐾

🤗Thank you, PTA, for the yummy treats and drinks! You've certainly added a sprinkle of joy to our day. You know how to make us feel loved and appreciated. 🌟

Harlan’s Principal of the Day did an exceptional job! He is a very thoughtful problem solver and has a heart of gold. He has a bright future in leadership. Thank you Principal for your excellent work!

BEF would like to celebrate your child and their new school!

BEF would love to help celebrate your child with a t-shirt, a fun yard sign, and an information packet!

We would like to introduce "Kona" Harlan's very own therapy dog!! Kona is still doing some training right now, but will be ready for the 2023-2024 school year.

Congratulations Heidi Smith for being named Birmingham Education Association Teacher of the Year! 🎉🍎🌈
We are so proud of you!

Harlan is lucky to have Jackie Ruppert on our PTA! She won "Volunteer of the Year" Thank you, Jackie for ALL that you do for our school, our staff, and our Huskies!

Green Team was busy this morning. We made plans for a new intuitive, picked which flowers we wanted from the Plant Sale, and then we went out to clean up our playground. Way to go Green, Huskies!

These are our Lunch Superheros! Thank you, Ms. April & Ms. Catrina for making the Harlan Huskies lunch everyday! You Rock!!!

It was a great day to be a husky! We had such great sportsmanship. Our youngest students worked so hard and while we had some hard lessons about losses, we also showed each other we could support each other in our wins too. We had a few medalists and honorable mentions, lots of smiles, laughter and snacks. (Details to come later on our stats.). Thank you to all the coaches this season and parents for monitoring the games today. Great job everyone!

🐾❤️

We celebrated Mrs. Hubbell’s Birthday with a real life game of Where’s Mrs. Hubbell? 😂

We all had a great time celebrating our wonderful Principal on her Birthday!
Students wrote the cutest birthday wishes on cruise ships and suitcases and “Mr. Hubbell” even made an appearance.

Happy Birthday, Mrs. Hubbell! 🎉

Our fire drill today was top notch with our Harlan Fire Chief leading the drill. He won the PTA auction item to be in charge of the Fire Drill and we are all in agreement that this Harlan Husky has a natural talent for leadership.

Harlan's 5th grade orchestra performance! Great job, Huskies!

Happy Principal Appreciation Day!

Mrs. Hubbell you are 💯 appreciated every day! We thank you for your leadership and the personalized relationships you have created with students, staff, and community! We appreciate your kindness and your laughter that fills the hallways. You make Harlan a happy place.
We are celebrating you with your very own Diet Coke cake, shopping spree, and flowers!

Thank you for all you do!
Love, Harlan 🐾❤️

It has been a VERY busy week at Harlan! We celebrated Austism Acceptance Month, Administrative Professionals Day, Afterschool Professionals Day, and wrapping up the Harlan Auction!!! A very packed week of fun! It is great to be a Husky!

Why rock your socks? People with Ds have 3 copies of the 21st chromosomes and when you put 2 socks heal to heal they look like chromosomes.

Celebrate how everyone is more alike than different.
