*Uniform donation program- We accept uniform donations from families. If your child has a gently used uniform they have outgrown, you are able to donate these clothing items to the school. A bin will be placed in the front entrance for donations to be dropped off.
If you trade in a gently used Harper polo your scholar has outgrown, you can get a new Harper polo for half price! Please do not place these in the donation bin, make sure you turn them in to either Mrs. Clawson or Mrs. Gardner!
