TONIGHT! Harding Academy in State Football Playoffs

Harding defeated Davidson Academy 63-28 last Friday night. That victory means the Lions will host St. George's tonight at 7:00 p.m.  Everyone is urged to WEAR BLUE!! Come out early and get loud! This is a TSSAA playoff game, therefore no passes will be honored (this is a TSSAA rule, not Harding's). This means students, parents, faculty, and boosters passes and ID's will not be honored. Everyone will pay $8.00 at the gate. A Lion win means advancing to the Blue Cross Championship Bowl December 1 at Tennessee Tech in Cookville, TN.

 


Varsity Cheerleaders  

We are so proud of our varsity cheerleaders. They placed 6th in an extremely tight state competition. There were only 11 points between Harding's placement and 1st place. The coaches described their performance as "awesome!" They looked sharp, solid, and hit everything! Congratulations for an excellent finish! 


Spring LEAP is Going LIVE!  

Spring LEAP classes are going LIVE by Tuesday, November 22, and will be ready to register.  A print version will be available soon. Go to www.hardinglions.org/leap to view and register.  If you have taken a LEAP class since we have been online, you should already have an account in your name.  If you need assistance, we are very happy to help.
