Welcome to Harper Creek High School

Good Afternoon,

I hope this message finds you well! 

On April 9, we will be administering the PSAT 9, PSAT 10, and SAT assessments to our 9th, 10th, and 11th graders. Please note that seniors will not report to school and are encouraged to work on their senior hours during this time.
Freshmen and sophomores are expected to complete their testing by around 11:00 AM and may leave school at that time. Juniors will finish around 12:00 PM and can leave as well. If you are unable to provide transportation for your student during these early release times, we will have supervised areas for them, and busing will be provided at the regular time of 1:40 PM.

Additionally, juniors will take the MSTEP on the afternoon of April 8, followed by the ACT WorkKeys assessment on the morning of April 10. Please note that this will be a normal school day for 9th, 10th, and 12th grade students.
For students attending the Calhoun Area Career Center or the Math and Science Center, they are expected to report for testing but will be excused from those locations. Afternoon math and science students will be excused but may attend if they have transportation and wish to do so.

We appreciate your support and cooperation in making this testing period smooth and successful for all students.

Have a great break!
Ed Greenman

Tickets for the annual “Night of Jazz” dinner dance are on sale in the band room and the main office. This event will feature the Harper Creek jazz band playing over two hours of live music in a nice dinner setting with a catered meal and dancing. Tickets are $30 each and will take place on April 26.

Auditions for next year’s jazz band will be held Thursday, May 1, after school in the band room. We are especially looking for guitar, bass, saxophone, and trombone students next year. Have a piece of music prepared that you believe shows off your abilities on your instrument. If you have any questions, ask Mr. Borders in the band room.

Our next blood drive is on April 21. You must be 16 or older to donate. Donations can earn you senior hours and a cord after 6 donations. Please see Mrs. Helmbreck for permission slips or to sign up.
