💚Harlan Elementary School would like to welcome Mrs. Whitney Creech! Mrs. Creech will be the 21st Century Coordinator at Harlan Elementary School.
Hello Dragon Family! It is a complete honor to be a part of such a wonderful family of students, parents and staff. My prior experience will allow me to excel in this position and bring some exciting things to our students. Currently, I am completing my Master’s degree in MAT at the University of the Cumberlands. I am so eager to work with each of you and help make this new school year a huge success! I have two children Collin and Karsyn. Collin will be in Kindergarten here at Harlan and it truly is a dream come true to be able to work in the same building. My husband Jonathan is a graduate of HHS. To be able to give back to a community that has already done so much for members of my family is a blessing. I am excited for my future at Harlan Independent Schools and look forward to meeting all those smiling faces! 🐉 #Morethanaschool

💚Mackenzie has been a member of the Green Dragon Family since she began K-3 at Sunshine School. She was a part of Harlan High School’s graduating class of 2018. In high school, Mackenzie excelled academically and athletically at HHS. She won three KHSAA State Championships in Track and Field and won back-to-back 13th Region Basketball Championships, earning appearances in the KHSAA Sweet Sixteen Basketball Tournament. After a successful academic and athletic career in basketball and track and field, she went on to play Divison II basketball at The University of Virginia's College at Wise where she graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in elementary education.
It has always been a dream of Mackenzie’s to return to Harlan Independent School District to teach. She is thrilled to begin her teaching career at Harlan Elementary School this fall and looks forward to carrying on the rich tradition of excellence of the Green Dragon Family. 🐉
We would like to congratulate one of Harlan’s finest, Jordan Akal, on signing with King University today! Jordan finishes his Green Dragon career as one of the most successful student-athletes in our county's history. Jordan scored over 2,600 points and led the team to several 13th Region All-A Championships, an All-A State Semifinals appearance, and a 52nd District Championship. Jordan was also named a finalist for Mr. Basketball in Kentucky.
We will be excited to continue to cheer Jordan on next year at King! And, of course, once a Dragon, always a Dragon! 🐉🐉🐉
