I am thrilled to share that our very own Mrs. Christina Berger was just announced as the 2027 South Dakota Teacher of the Year! We couldn't be happier for Mrs. Berger & so grateful for ALL she pours into our kids and community! She will represent Harrisburg & South Dakota well!

THRILLED to recognize this young lady for her kindness and leadership! When Ms. Mann was working with another learner, she stepped up to help a classmate who needed help with his learning. LOVE when our learners SEE others and take care of each other! #GoodNewsCallOfTheDay

#GoodNewsCalloftheDay This young man leads by example every day: sharing materials, being a great classmate, and choosing to do math work when he finishes early. Quiet leadership, big impact. Way to go!

This learner in Mr. Jordan's class is the kind of kid who just gets it!

He helped a friend by offering his pencil, sharpening it, and explaining the task. His iPad wasn’t working, he didn’t make a big deal—he simply grabbed a book and started reading.
