WATCH D.O.G.S

Dads Of Great Students - WE WANT YOU! Dads and Grandfathers can volunteer to spend time at Harp Elementary as support staff for a day. Watch D.O.G.S. is a program established in order to provide a safe and nurturing environment for students. It is our goal, at Harp Elementary, to have a father or grandfather at school each day. Watch D.O.G.S. assist in a variety of activities such as greeting car riders, patrolling the parking lot, supervising the playground, serving as hall monitors, and reading partners. As you walk our hallways, you can observe our Watch D.O.G.S. reading with students one on one or helping with small group activities. This program is an excellent way to provide our students with positive male role models.

To volunteer to be a Watch D.O.G. at Harp Elementary School, please call the school office at 750-8740 to sign up. There is also a sign up sheet at the Safe Gate Mom desk.

Safe Gate Moms

Volunteer to greet visitors to Harp Elementary and provide support for our staff. Our Moms and Grandmothers are stationed by the front entrance in order to greet each visitor to our school. In this way, we ensure the safety of our children, as we welcome appropriate personnel and parents. At Harp Elementary, we are always striving to make sure our hallways are safe for our children. To sign up to be a Safe Gate Mom, you can call the school office at 750-8740 or sign up at the Safe Gate Mom desk located at the front entrance of the school.

Paired Reading

It is an academic goal at Harp Elementary for each student to be reading on grade level. The Paired Reading program has been implemented at Harp Elementary in order to help achieve this goal. Paired Reading is a proven reading strategy for accelerating a child's reading level. This strategy is made up of eight simple steps that can be seen in two short videos. This video training takes less than 30 minutes and is provided by our Literacy Specialists. Please call 750-8740 and sign up for this training today. Even if you are unable to volunteer time at school, this strategy can be used with great success at home. If you are interested in being a Reading Partner in the Paired Reading program, please call 750-8740 and sign up today.

Harp’s Annual Family Freedom Celebration

Harp Elementary School Spirit Night at Chick-fil-A

Here is how it works. Come and eat with us the first Tuesday of every month between the hours of 5:00 pm and 8:00 pm. Bring the slip attached below, fill out the appropriate information, and turn it in to the cashier at Chick-fil-A. Chick-fil-A will add up the total of all the slips and return 10% of all the money spent during those hours to our school. What a deliciously easy way to earn money for our school. In addition, the class with the most slips turned in will win a special prize. This offer is only good at the Chick-fil-A located at 4180 N. College Avenue in front of Toys-R-Us from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm on the first Tuesday of every month. Click here to print off Chick-fil-A form.
