Hawk Pride News - Eng 9/18/26
G W Harby Junior High - July 31, 2026

Dear Parents and Families,
It was a great week of homecoming celebration this week at Harby Jr High! We are proud of all the students that participated in the homecoming court for working towards their goals. Congratulations to our homecoming court winners!
Our school pride has been growing over the past three years! We had a record number of students attend the homecoming game and participate in the homecoming dress up days. This year our National Junior Honor Society and Student Council had a float in the Alvin High School parade, which hasn’t happened in the past 8 years, at least.
Sincerely,
William "Randy" Teal
Principal of Harby Jr High
