Wow, almost another year completed in the annals of Hardin Northern Local School and community history. It has been another great year with many individual and team accomplishments. Thanks to all our staff, parents, and students for helping to make this another memorable year.

I wanted to let everyone know that the district’s strategic planning process has been completed and approved by the board of education. A comprehensive review of this plan will be mailed to you later in the form of an annual report from the Board of Education. I have included the 1 page overview as part of this communication in the newsletter. As always, please do not hesitate to contact my office to let us know how we are doing and what you think we can improve upon. This is our (yours and my) school and all of us take the responsibility of making it the very best place for educating our most precious asset – our students. Below is another article I recently published electronically. In this publication I discuss a recent news article that I cam e across in a popular education magazine, Education Week. You can access all of my publications and see the most recent information I am sharing about Hardin Northern and education by signing up for an account on Linkedin and make the “connection” with me.

Enjoy the nice weather we are finally experiencing this spring and have a great summer.
