🐉🐉👏👏 GREEN DRAGONS WIN! 👏👏🐉🐉
The Green Dragons battled all night and pulled out a hard-fought 64–60 victory over Nicholas County in the first round of the All A State Tournament. The game went back and forth from start to finish, and after trailing by four late in the fourth quarter, the Dragons stayed locked in, fought through the pressure, and finished strong to secure the win.
The Green Dragons will advance to the quarterfinals and face Newport tomorrow at 6:00 CST / 7:00 EST.

Harlan Independent Schools is gathering information from students, families, educators and community members to support our work in developing a district Portrait of a Learner. Built on a strong tradition of academic success, this effort will help guide how we prepare Harlan students—not just for graduation, but for life beyond our classrooms. The Portrait of a Learner will define the skills, mindsets, and experiences we believe every Dragon should develop to be confident, capable, and future-ready.
Your voice matters in this process. We invite you to take a few moments to complete this short survey and help shape the future of Harlan Independent Schools. The survey will be open through January 7th.
