HCCS Celebrates the 2025 Retirees and Years of Service at Welcome Event

The 2025 Retirees and Milestone Years of Service were celebrated at this year's Staff Appreciation Breakfast. 

Harper's Unsung Heroes - Nicole Asher

Nicole has spent her entire sixteen-year teaching career working with autistic students. She joined our Harper Creek family a few years ago with the addition of an AI classroom to Wattles Park. Her calm demeanor makes her a perfect fit in working with our special education population. Her students have benefited from having daily interactions with their general education peers, just as our general education peers have benefited from interacting with them.

Directions

Stop the Silence. Help end the Violence.

All of us can be the eyes and ears of the community and ensure that our children are safe. I encourage everyone—students, staff, parents, and community members— to report potentially harmful or criminal acts using OK2SAY.

Annual Education Report

The Annual Education Report (AER) provides key information about the educational progress on the complex reporting of information required by federal and state laws. The reports contain information about student assessment, accountability, and teacher quality. We have three AERs available to parents and the community. Below is a list of each school with a link to its AER letter and data.
