Harlan Technology Student Association competed at the KYTSA state competition to start off this week. It came down to a tiebreaker question for our Technology Bowl team, as Cameron Reynolds, Kevin Lee, and Sayed Damaa fell short of a top 3 place finish, finishing the set of matches in 4th place in the state! Sayed Damaa did earn Harlan’s first top 3 placement at the state competition with a 2nd place finish in Extemporaneous Speech, where participants are given a random STEM topic and must impress judges with their knowledge and understanding of the topic with no preparation beforehand. We’re proud of all of our Harlan TSA members this year, ending a very successful year with multiple placements at region and this placement at state. Sayed Damaa does have the opportunity to compete at the National level in Orlando, Florida this summer because of his placement! 🐉🐉🐉

🎶🎼HHS Seniors Allyssa Burkhart, Ethan Farley, and Morgan Pyles performed at the Upper Cumberland Retired Teachers Association meeting at the Harlan Center.  Andrew Alred, the grandson of retired teacher Karen Alred, read the poem, It Takes a Heap of Learning, written by Frances Ball in 1982. 🎶🎼📖
