HMS
- Cooperative Students of the Week
The Student of the Week
program at J. E. Harrison Middle School is run by
the Positive Communication Committee. Each week the
10 Core Teams, four in sixth grade, three in seventh
grade and three in eighth grade, plus the Physical
Education Team, the Music Team and the Encore Team
nominate students to be Students of the Week. These
students possess a positive character trait. The
traits are chosen from those studied during Homebase
activities. Each Student of the Week will have a
congratulatory letter sent home to their parents
or guardians, will have a candy bar and a certificate
delivered to their homebase, and will have their
name displayed in the library with the other chosen
students. Students can be chosen as Student of the
Week only once each school year.
