Freedom Elementary

Each year, in partnership with Sanford Health, Harrisburg School District recognizes the outstanding work of educators. Harrisburg staff members nominate individuals from their respective buildings that they feel go above and beyond for learners and families. An independent review committee scores the applications and helps to determine the annual winners of our Teacher of the Year and Classified Employee of the Year. This year, we are proud to award HHS Family & Consumer Science Teacher 𝙈𝙧𝙨. 𝙏𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙮 𝙆𝙚𝙧𝙣 (Teacher of the Year) and District Registrar 𝙈𝙧𝙨. 𝘾𝙖𝙧𝙤𝙡 𝘽𝙪𝙘𝙝𝙤𝙡𝙯 (Classified Employee of the Year) for their dedication to helping all learners find success. #TigerProud 🐾🏆

The last day of school for Harrisburg School District students will be Thursday, May 20th. This will be a full day of school (no early release). 🐾🏁

During the pandemic, HSD library staff continued to exceed our District's demands and adapt resources and services to meet our students' needs during challenging times. Whether in person or virtually, Harrisburg libraries offer endless opportunities to transform lives through education and lifelong learning. Here's a shoutout to our Harrisburg Libraries and their staff! #TigerProud 🐾♥️📚

We noticed that our Freedom pick-up needs a little work! No worries, we have a graphic that can hopefully eliminate some of the problems. Please make sure to keep the left lane (red line on the map) open at all times. Many cars are double parked as they wait for pickup and that backs up the entire line of cars. We also have kids walking through lanes of traffic to enter those double parked cars which is a huge safety concern. Please share this graphic with anyone that is picking up your child (including older siblings) so we are all on the same page.

A reminder there will be NO SCHOOL February 11 - 15th. 🐾

Tiger on Track learners for January demonstrated that they are able to "Manage their impulses." Congratulations!!
