Harding Back-to-School: Day 1 & Week 1 Details

School Begins Tuesday September 2nd!
Welcome Back, Harding Community!
We are so excited to begin a new school year together. The first days set the tone for the year, and we look forward to welcoming our students with energy, belonging, and possibility. Thank you for your partnership—we’re ready for a great start!
Please check out some of the needed details for Day 1 and our first week.
Week 1 Schedule
We will be starting both Tuesday and Wednesday in Advisory. You will receive your schedule in your advisory. If you do not know your Advisory Teacher, we will help direct you when you arrive on Tuesday morning.
Please take a look at the schedule for the week listed below.
Cell Phone and Personal Electronic Device Policy
Saint Paul Public Schools has adopted a new cell phone policy (Saint Paul Public Schools Board Policy 550) to support learning, safety, and community in our schools. At Harding, we are committed to creating classrooms where students can focus, engage, and connect with one another. To support this, we have clear procedures in place that align with the district policy and help ensure consistency for all students. Please review the details below so we can partner together in setting students up for success.
Student Schedules
Check student schedules, which can be found via Campus, prior to Tuesday September 2nd. Students will receive a paper copy of their schedule during their advisory.
With the new Cell Phone Policy, students will not be able to use their phones during class which includes looking up their schedule during class.
School Issued iPads
Reminder that you should bring your school issued iPads with you to school beginning on Tuesday September 2.
New iPads will be distributed Thursday and Friday of our first week. Students must turn in their old devices during this time.
Students will need their iPads to access course work. Since cell phones will not be used during class, phones will not be used as a substitute for iPads.
Student Drop-Off
If you are dropping students off, please use Door 11 (before 8:30 am) and Door 1 (anytime).
