You’re Invited!
Harmony Public Schools South/West District is hosting a virtual career talk in partnership with the Society of Petroleum Engineers. It’s happening on Wednesday, April 7th at 5:30 P.M. Students, parents, and staff are all invited to attend.
Please be advised there is no school March 15th-19th due to Spring Break. We hope you and your family have a safe and relaxing break. Classes resume on Monday, March 22nd.
The purpose of this announcement is to inform our HPS communities about changes to the Student Success Initiative (SSI) promotion/retention and retesting requirements for the 2020–2021 school year. In light of past and anticipated impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Commissioner of Education has waived grade promotion requirements for students in fifth and eighth grade for the 2020–2021 school year. Notwithstanding anything the contrary in prior policy or procedure, Harmony Public Schools will comply with the Commissioner’s waiver of SSI requirements for this school year.

Greetings HPS friends and family:
As we look forward to a wonderful Spring Break, we wanted to make you aware of the meal distribution schedule for the upcoming week.
This Friday, March 12, 2021, meal distribution will take place from 9:00 am – 10:00 am. We will distribute meals for 7 days which includes breakfast, lunch and milk. These meals are available for both in person and distance learners.
Meal distribution after Spring Break will resume on Monday, March 22, 2021 from 9:00 am – 10 am.
SSO is a free meals program for all children ages 18 and under. Students 21 and under who are currently enrolled in a school and are identified as mentally or physically disabled are also eligible. Meal distribution is open to our students, their siblings, and the community.
Parents wishing to pick up a meal box without children present will need to present one of the following to verify guardianship:
∙ Individual student report cards
∙ Attendance record from parent portal of a school website
∙ Birth certificate
∙ Official letter/email from facility or school listing children enrolled
∙ Other official ID cards (for example, IDs issued by a child care facility)
While our goal is to be able to provide meal boxes to all families requesting one for each of their children, please note that meal boxes are on a first come, first serve basis.
If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Dikova, Child Nutrition Assistant, at rdikov@harmonytx.org
The below items will be substituted for Monday’s curbside.
Chicken bites and waffles will be subbed with a crispy chicken sandwich.
The calzoni will come with broccoli in place of cucumbers.
