Gobble gobble! HES students hunted turkeys with their families in downtown Harlan, using clues to find the turkeys hidden in the windows of local businesses. Families completing the hunt received an apple pie. The #kyfamengage event was sponsored by 21st Century, FRYSC, and Save the Children.





Happy Thanksgiving from the Harlan Independent School District. We are thankful for the school community that loves and supports our students.
