Students Report: Track

Written by Raziya Green and Kaiden Evans

Track is a running ability sport. At Warren G. Harding track is a sport that both boys and girls participate in. The sport has 44 different events for boys and girls to run. Track allows girls and boys to receive athletic scholarships to many different colleges. To participate in track, students don’t have to be runners.

Hurling, throwing and jumping are examples of non-running events in track. Relay races and long-distance races are other examples of the different events students can participate in as part of the track team. In order to join the track team students must meet all requirements including attending training and conditioning, have a GPA of at least 2.5 and attend school regularly with no unexcused absences. Students are also expected to stay in the W and maintain respectful representation in and out of school.

Students Report: Soccer

Written by Emily Trisler

Boys and Girls Soccer

The Warren G Harding boys and girls soccer teams have been working hard and practicing since earlier this year. Every single game these kids have played, they played hard. In fact, two of the players from the boys and girls soccer team have been made athlete of the week: Sophie Gardner and Nate James. As the games go on, more and more people show up to support the teams. We are encouraging more students to come to the games because soccer needs the same level of recognition from the students and community as other sports. Soccer is a very entertaining sport and many of the fans are engaged and excited so come and have fun. The soccer, and all other sports schedules are available on the Warren G Harding Athletic page.

Ms. Scarmack and Students Making a Difference

October is an exciting time in Ms. Scarmack’s Principles of Foods cooking classes as they participate in “Make a Difference October.”  Each week throughout the month of October, the cooking students will prepare baked goods and then decide as a lab group how much of their baked goods to donate to nonprofit organizations in Warren.  


Students have spent time researching local nonprofit organizations and the organizations with the most votes will receive the donations over the next few weeks as a way to give back to the Warren community.  Today, October 5, 2022, four students were able to deliver 113 chocolate chip cookies, which were baked by all Principles of Foods students, to the Warren Family Mission.  Those four students were the following: Virgol Ball, Zachery Fannin, Emma Rittwage, and Cerenitie Wilson.

Student Lead Wellness

Members of the WGH National Honor Society saw a need in our school and took it upon themselves to address it. With the rash of violence that has affected students in our school, and across the country, these students created an assembly addressing Wellness. They researched mental health and wellness, surveyed the student population, created a PowerPoint, provided examples, resources and activities, and informed their fellow students that Wellness is important and that THEY are important!

Congratulations to Zipporah Ball, Kerrigan Riley, Madison Hazy, Chloe Williams, and Jovana Pirivatric for seeing a need in their community and having the confidence to address it.
