• Students cannot arrive on campus until 7:45 AM as there is NO School Supervision until this time. For the safety of your child, please be sure they are not left unattended.

• Reminders: Parents will not be allowed inside the building without prior approval. Safety for our children must remain top priority.

• Students will not be removed from their classrooms until parents arrive even if calling in advance.

• The cut-off time to pull students out early is 2:35PM (1:35PM on Weds) If you arrive after this time to sign your child out, you will have to wait until the dismissal bell rings.

Otherwise, we expect your child to be picked up on time as school ends promptly @ 2:55 PM (1:55PM on Weds) (11:55AM on half days)

Harris Title I Service Letter

Free and Reduced Price Meal Application

Hello! I am Mrs. Laserna. I am the part-time Dean of Students this year at Harris. Half of my salary is funded through Title I funds. I work closely with Mr. Roth to help be an instructional leader, initiate our P.B.I.S. (Positive Behavioral Intervention & Support), and help our Hawks be successful.

This is my first year at Harris. I am excited to be a member of this community, and I am dedicated to supporting our families.
