The Harman Garden Committee Needs You!
Garden Clean Up
Join us for the final Garden Clean Up of the year Saturday, Oct. 26 anytime between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. Please RSVP on Sign Up Genius so we know you're planning on attending.
ADOPT A SPOT
Use your green thumb to help beautify the Harman School grounds.
Small areas of the grounds have been identified for the new “Adopt the Spot” program. Volunteers who adopt a spot will help maintain their “spot” during the school year. Adopt a Spot is a great way for groups, clubs and families to give back to Harman School. Please sign up using Sign Up Genius at:
