Message from the Principal

Welcome to Harrison Central Elementary! We are proud to provide a welcoming, innovative, and supportive learning environment where every student has the opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed.

Our dedicated team goes beyond classroom teachers, intervention specialists, and paraprofessionals to include a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), literacy and math coaches, and access to a school-based nurse practitioner through our partnership with WVU Medicine. Together, these professionals help us meet the academic, social, emotional, and physical needs of our students.

Our building is designed to inspire collaboration and creativity, featuring flexible seating, unique common spaces that encourage shared learning across grade levels, and inclusive playgrounds where students of all abilities can play and connect.

Family and community involvement is also an important part of who we are. From our highly anticipated annual Literacy Night to special activities and partnerships throughout the year, we value opportunities to bring our students, families, and community together.

At Harrison Central Elementary, we believe every child deserves to feel valued, supported, and inspired. We are proud of the opportunities we provide and the strong relationships that make our school community special.

We encourage families to stay connected, keep student information updated through FinalForms, and contact our elementary office at (740) 942-7600 with any questions.

Thank you for being part of the Harrison Central family!

Go Huskies!!!

Respectfully,

Kenneth M. Parker
Building Principal, PK–12
