Today, our Hardin Northern Junior High and High School students who earned All-A or A-B Honor Roll or achieved perfect attendance for the first quarter enjoyed a well-deserved incentive trip to the Columbus Zoo!

It started off a little chilly, but the day turned out beautiful and everyone had a great time exploring and celebrating their hard work. Keep it up, great work, Bears!👏

Motivation Monday!

“You don’t have to be perfect to be amazing.”

Mistakes don’t define you. Effort does. You’re going to stumble sometimes-that’s okay. What matters is that you get back up and keep trying. Bears, show up and be your best, not perfect.

The first graders have been studying animals and practicing research. They were able to choose which animal they wanted to research and then wrote facts about their animal. Then they used their facts to write a book. They really enjoyed this project and loved making their own book!
