2019-2020 School Supply Lists

Yep, it’s time to plan for next school year already. Want to mark something off your list now? Your Harmony PTA provides a school supply service to help make back to school shopping a little bit easier. Simply click the image below and order the kit for the grade your child will be in next year. Then we deliver the kits to your child’s classroom, so it’s waiting for you open house night. It can’t get any easier than that! Don’t delay, orders must be submitted by June 30th!

We do this completely as a convenience service for our Harmony families, this is not a fundraiser for us. If you wish to purchase your supplies on your own, you may certainly do so. Here are the complete lists for each grade level. HES 2019-2020 School Supply Lists

Annual SBDM Nominations

Download full letter and application here SBDM Election Letter

Dear Harmony Elementary School Parents:

I hope you’ll consider running for our school council, or encourage a friend to do so.

In Kentucky, each school has a council composed of the principal, elected teachers, and elected parents who make many of the most important decisions about how their school will work. The council is a wonderful chance to learn about your school, work closely with teachers, and help make our school even more successful than it is now. The parent members of the council are elected by parents. This year we are electing a parent representative for a 2 year term, as well as a minority parent for a 1 year term. Each will receive training and will serve from July 1 to June for their terms. To help with questions you may have, I’m enclosing a fact sheet about parent members of Kentucky school councils.

Nominations are due to Carla Stone in Harmony’s school office no later than 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday, April 10, 2019. If you know someone who would be a good candidate, please do encourage that person to run.  

The election will be held Tuesday, April 23rd from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in Harmony’s school office. If you will have a child enrolled at Harmony next year, you are eligible to vote in this election. (This includes parents, step-parents, and foster parents.) I urge every parent to participate in this important decision about the future of our children’s school.

Results will be announced (and a run-off election held if necessary) on Tuesday, April 23rd 2019 at 3:45 p.m. in Harmony’s school office. Please plan to be present for this important event.  

Thank you for your interest in our school, and please let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Jessy Maggard

Reflections Call for Entries

Do you have a creative child who enjoys expressing his/her talents through the arts? PTA Reflections is a nationwide art program available to all Harmony students. The program exists to provide kids with the opportunity to express their creativity in one or more of the following art categories: dance choreography, film production, literature, music composition, photography and visual arts. 
Each entry should focus on the 2018-19 theme, Heroes Around Me. Each student will need to explain how his/her art relates to the theme in a personal artist statement on the application. The connection between the theme and the artwork is a critical part of the judging process.
NEW THIS YEAR: In previous years, Reflections entries have had the potential to be judged at 4 different levels (school, district, state and national). Unfortunately, we are not able to participate at the district level this year because District 13 does not have a complete PTA board. This means that school winners will promote directly to the state competition. Please note that the state award ceremony takes place in May and we are not able to host a local award ceremony beforehand as we have in years past. Students will still have the opportunity to earn awards at the school, state and national level.

If your child is interested in Reflections, please review the official rules and submit his/her work along with the completed Entry Form. Please be sure to include an email address on the entry form so I can contact you with any questions.

All entries will be due in the school office by 10 am on Wednesday, November 7, though students are encouraged to turn them in earlier.
Should you have any questions about the program, contact me at brandymschaefer@gmail.com.
Good luck Huskies!
Brandy Schaefer
Reflections Chair
