Welcome message for military families
School supply flier

Attention parents, if you are getting an early start on your back-to-school shopping, be sure to visit the district website for the school supply lists for every elementary and middle school in HCSD. Click this link to go directly to the page: https://harrison.k12.ms.us/31814_2. Keesler Federal Credit Union will be donating free school supplies to all kindergartners in HCSD. Parents will need to provide a clear or mesh bookbag. Your child's school will share information on how those supplies will be distributed. Remember, Mississippi's Sales Tax Holiday is taking place earlier this year, July 12-14, and school supplies are included. For more information and to view the Official Guide of eligible and non-eligible items, go here: https://www.dor.ms.gov/node/15882.
