This week, Mr. Cano put out a challenge to the teachers to rename his "Superintendent's Corner" monthly video. The winner of the contest, chosen by a third party, will win a half day off of work and Mr. Cano will be covering their class for the day. And... the winner is...Beyond The Ice! Congratulations Mr. Joe Foster! Stay tuned for updates and insights as Mr. Cano continues to keep us in the loop on all the latest happenings at Hardin Northern!

Ms. DeLong's first grade class has started studying animals. They have been reading nonfiction stories, learning about text features, and writing their own informational text about an animal they chose. They have been having fun learning facts and comparing themselves to the different animals!
Ms. DeLong's class has been celebrating fall by studying pumpkins! They wrote facts and how to carve a pumpkin. They worked together to carve a pumpkin and then did an experiment with it. The first graders have been loving fall!
Congratulations to Alaina Thomas for being named Player of the Week by House of Awards and Sports for the week of September 29-October 5th! Way to go Alaina!🏐
Mrs. Hackworth's first grade at Hardin Northern had some fun exploring pumpkins. We carved a jack-o-lantern, compared different kinds, and did an experiment with candy pumpkins. They are all getting excited for Halloween.
#ThrowbackThursday to the high school basketball team from the 1956 Northern Lites! 🏀
What do you do after your class finishes a challenging unit on the French Revolution? You "Let them eat cake!"
Well, Marie Antoinette may not have ever said that, but it was enough reason to have a "Let them eat cake" Party for the World History class with the highest class average on their test. We had six cakes and one dish of brownies to celebrate their success.
Mrs. Hackworth's first grade students have been talking about animal features. They compared themselves to the Lifesize pictures in a book. They researched several animals, chose their favorite, and made a nonfiction book. We also did a science experiment using straws and cups as bird beaks.
Mrs. Mast’s students used their knowledge about forces, from their unit, to apply to real-life bridge design. In the activity, Paper Bridge Engineering, students tried to build a strong bridge that support as much weight as possible. They learned about common bridge designs and tried to recreate what they thought would work the best with two pieces of paper.
There will be a JH girls basketball parent meeting on Thursday, October 24th at 6:30p in Coach Hartzell's classroom. The player handbook will be discussed and practice schedules will be passed out.

Fourth grade has finished their Earth science studies by ending with a research project about natural disasters!

Each group picked a disaster to research, explained its characteristics, and how it impacts Earth.

We are thrilled to announce a new tradition at Hardin Northern: Caps and Crayons!
This heartwarming program brings together our senior class and kindergarten students for a special moment on the football field.
At this event, our senior and incoming kindergarteners will meet at the 50-yard line, symbolizing the connection between the beginning and end of their educational journeys. This event fosters school spirit, unity, and celebrates the growth that happens from the first day of kindergarten to graduation day.
Throughout the year, seniors and kindergartners will continue to build this bond through various activities, creating lasting memories and highlighting the shared connection within our school community.
Today, students in Mrs. Mast’s Class saw that by learning to think about pushes and pulls — forces — they can accomplish extraordinary things! In the activity, Hopper Popper, students made a folded piece of cardboard jump high in the air, propelled by the pulling force of a rubber band. They discussed the forces involved in making this “Hopper Popper” jump.
