Each week, the HBHS Football team selects a "Teacher of the Week." This week, John Stewart was selected by the players. The players mentioned, Mr. Stewart goes out of his way to make sure we understand the material, and he supports Har-Ber football by taking an interest in the players and asking about the team. Mr. Stewart always asks me about football and other sports. He watched the McKinney game, and I'm sure he will come to the games. Not only does he want me to succeed in his classroom, he understands that success outside his classroom is more important Mr. Stewart is very hard working and is always pushing his students. He always wants his kids to do their best in every area of their lives. He is always wanting to help his kids in any way he can Congratulations Mrs. Stewart!

Each week, the HBHS Football team will select a "Teacher of the Week." This is to recognize teachers that make a difference in the lives of our students. Taylor Hall, a math teacher at HBHS, was selected by the team. What some of the players had to say about Mr. Hall. "He really cares about his students in the classroom and cares about the extracurricular activities that you do outside of the classroom" "He was always interacting with his students in ways besides teaching. He was more of a friend than a teacher" Picture of Drue McClendon presenting Mr. Hall with a Har-Ber helmet. Congratulations Mr. Hall!!!!
