Today is the day! Congratulations to all of our graduates! We are so proud of each and every one of you!
Graduation takes place in the NHHS gym starting at 1:00 PM.
It was Hawaiian/ tourist day at NHE and a great way to end Miss Winn's around the world unit. The 5th graders "traveled" around the world and did context clue challenges, while learning new things about each place they visited.
The Class of 2023 practiced for their graduation ceremony this morning. We would love to have a crowd to celebrate the accomplishments of the seniors on Sunday, May 21 at 1:00 pm. 🎓👩‍🎓👨‍🎓💙
On Tuesday, NHE 4th graders traveled to Angel Mounds State Historic Site in Evansville, IN for a special extended day field trip! What started out as a very rainy morning, turned out to be a beautiful day to learn about the Mississippian Native American culture.
On Wednesday, NHE 4th graders participated in Game Day! They brought games from home to share with friends and we had a fantastic day together playing them all!
2nd grade at NHES worked in small groups to design and build bridges! They were not only architects, but engineers! They had to develop a “blue print” and build from their ideas.
Last Week the NHE 4th graders attended a field trip to downtown Corydon. They explored Governor Hendricks' House, the Capitol Building, and Zimmerman's Art Glass. They enjoyed lunch and some play time at Rice Island Park. Then they finished off the field trip with a bus tour of some other areas around Corydon, including the Leora Brown School, Cedar Hill Cemetery, the Constitution Elm, and Big Indian Creek. What a gorgeous day spent in our small town of Corydon!

The Kentucky Science Center and SamTec representatives visited Mr. Cherry's classroom to host their showcase of the STEM cart. The event lasted about 30 minutes. During that time the students rotated and were engaged in different activities from the cart. The students did an amazing job talking with the guests, answering questions, and telling them all about the things they have learned. It was an impressive presentation! Thanks to Mr. Cherry for all of the hard work he put in to secure the grant and then make it a centerpiece in many of his lessons!
North Harrison Elementary has a NEW Playground! It seemed like it took forever to complete, but the playground is finished and it is awesome!
2nd grade at NHES worked in small teams to design and build an egg protector, using only straws and tape! For Round 1 trials, SRO Hutchinson was our official tester, dropping them off his truck! Many made it to round 2 testing!
Mrs. Thompson's class had the best day riding rides and enjoying the sun at Holiday World.
NHE 5th graders enjoyed a beautiful day participating in our annual cave crawl. This was the first cave trip we have had since covid. It was great to keep this NHE 5th grade tradition going!!!!
Mr. Johnson's 2nd grade class participated in a Build a Bridge challenge. Students designed, built, and tested their bridges using various items in the classroom. One bridge supported 13 Wonder's reading books!
Monday, the science department handed out the top science awards to seniors. There are three awards given at the end of each school year. The top senior in physical and biological science awards have been a tradition since 1988, and the top laboratory science award has been a new tradition since 2019. The top three students are chosen by all the teachers in the science department, and their names will be added to the NHHS Senior Science Wall of Fame. Also recognized on Monday was a senior who has competed on the Academic Superbowl Team for all four years of high school.
Jeremy Satterfield received the top physical science award. Jeremy is attending Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology and majoring in chemical engineering.
Alyssa Spurlock received the top biological science award. Alyssa is attending Indiana University Southeast and majoring in nursing.
Harrison Uhl received the top laboratory science award. Harrison is attending Purdue University and majoring in biology.
Lastly, Olivia Abner was recognized for four years of dedicated team work on the Academic Superbowl Team. Olivia is the only graduating senior on the team who has been participating on the team for her entire high school career. Olivia is attending the University of Alabama and is majoring in business and international studies.
Congratulations to these students, and best of luck to them in all of their future endeavours!
North Harrison is going forward with STEM Certification. Some of the students in Mrs. Schulz's Class earned a Purdue STEM Degree. They completed ten online lessons and passed the tests for each one to earn their Purdue STEM Degree. The lessons presented a wide variety of topics such as: The Greenhouse Effect, what can be learned from fossils, animal adaptations and more. These students used their free time to work on their STEM Degrees. They are very proud to have finished the course!
