Illinois Youth Survey
Harter Middle School News | Posted JAN 24 2012
The Center for Prevention Research and Development at the University of Illinois is conducting a statewide survey of Illinois middle and high school students. The purpose of the Illinois Youth Survey is to better understand Illinois youth risk and protective behaviors as they related to student problems and academic success.
If your child participates, he/she will be asked to complete a survey (with no names or identification numbers) that will be confidentially administered by a classroom teacher, counselor, or community member who has received training on survey administration. The survey is completely voluntary and privacy will be strictly protected and will be administered to students in sixth and eighth grade students. On February 16 and 17, 2012, students will be given either a paper and pencil survey in their homeroom and it will last about between 45-50 minutes. If there are any questions your child does not wish to answer, he/she is free to skip questions and they may stop taking survey at any time they choose. Students who do not wish to participate in the survey or stop participating or whose parents choose to deny permission for their participation will be provided with an appropriate alternative activity (e.g. reading in the school library or quiet reading) while the surveys are being administered. The staff handing out surveys will remind students of these rights before the survey begins.
If you have any questions about the survey, please contact your grade level counselor.

Become a Knight of the Round Table
Harter Middle School News | Posted DEC 13 2011
Students at Harter Middle School can become a Knight of the Round Table (KORT) member. A KORT member is a student at Harter Middle School that completes 30 hours of community service outside of the school day between the beginning of their 6th grade year and the end of their 8th grade year. The KORT program was a long-standing program at Kaneland Middle School and was dropped due to unfortunate funding issues. HMS is proud to be re-instating this program with the help of the HMS PTO.
KORT members receive a shield after attaining the appropriate number of hours of documented community service. Additional hours are signified by adding a star to the shield for every 10 additional documented hours. Students in 7th and 8th grades will be given a prorated number of hours required to become members of KORT and receive the shield. 7th graders will need 20 hours and 8th graders will need 10 hours to become members of KORT. A community service log sheet will be uploaded to the digital backpack soon so that students can begin working over Winter Break if they so choose. More »
