Mrs. Cindy Howard visited Harlan Elementary's 2nd and 3rd grade classes. She presented a program on Lessons in a Lunchbox: Healthy Teeth Essentials. This program centered around the importance of good oral hygiene and preventing tooth decay. Mrs. Howard demonstrated the proper way to brush and floss your teeth. She also presented each student with a Lunchbox that included information on eating healthy and items necessary for daily oral hygiene. The students enjoyed the program and were so excited about their very own lunchbox!

In collaboration with Mrs. Ledford from PRI, Ms. Wilson’s Health & PE classes for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grades had visitors from Pine Mountain Settlement School. Jenn Noble and Roy Hawthorne discussed our Appalachian heritage, culture, and environment with each class. They also brought some Appalachian items, including a quilt, 100 year old skirt, baskets, and homemade wooden toys. The highlight of the visit was the games and dances they shared with the students that were centered around our Appalachian culture. They included Cow Hunt, Patty Cake Pokey, Sally Down the Alley, Kitty Want a Corner, and Blind Man’s Backyard. The students participated so well and had so much fun. For more information about the activities they have at Pine Mountain Settlement School, you can visit their Facebook page or their website: https://www.pinemountainsettlementschool.com/.

There will no Dragons Beyond the Bell tomorrow, March 19, 2024, due to Kindergarten Registration.
