The NASA South Dakota Space Grant Consortium has selected Mr. Benjamin DeNeui, HHS physics teacher, to participate in its 2019 RET Fellowship Program. Mr. DeNeui will spend eight weeks working under the mentorship of Dr. Drew Alton, Associate Professor of Physics at Augustana University, researching high energy particle physics and dark matter detection. Only two high school teachers were selected to participate in this program during the summer of 2019, with the focus being application of the research experience back into the high school classroom. Congratulations, Mr. DeNeui – we are #TigerProud!

Here is some further information from the SDDOT regarding the Minnesota Avenue construction project. https://5il.co/73tz

The following are TWO important messages from the Harrisburg School District: 🚧 Minnesota Avenue Construction 🚧 Beginning tomorrow, Wednesday April 3rd, construction will begin on SD-115/Minnesota Avenue. Construction will be completed in phases over two years, with the first phase taking place between just south of the Minnesota/Willow St. Intersection north to the Apple Orchard. No other traffic, other than local traffic, will be able to travel on Minnesota during this time. For the time being, the contractor will allow our students coming from the west on 110/Willow St. to turn north on to 115/Minnesota Ave. to get to Tiger Way from 7:30 – 8:00am. After 8am, and for the rest of the day, all traffic will need to enter & exit through the SOUTH of the school (onto Willow St.) and may proceed east or west from there. Affected bus routes will not change until fall, and further details will be provided at that time. Please encourage students to drive along paved routes. 🐯 Last Day of School 🐯 Barring any further missed school days, the last day of school will now be Thursday, May 23rd due to make up days.
