Tecumseh-Harrison Elementary

opened its doors in 1906 and has gone through
many changes over the years. In 1974
the Hoke gym was built and in 1975 the Vincennes
Community School Corporation purchased the Sacred Heart Catholic School
across the street, which was built in 1961. In 1998
the VCSC constructed a new wing housing 4 classrooms.

school through the old buildings main door on the 2nd Street side, this
is the only door that is unlocked in our complex.

As you enter, you will notice our historical
artifacts display and awards wall.

straight ahead and we try to keep the office area decorated to celebrate
the seasons.

Our halls throughout the complex are filled with the art
of the many artists who have visited our school over
the years.

Off the main hall of the old building is the Library.
We call it the hay loft because of the room structure. Our library
is the center of our Accelerated Reading Program.

We also have two second grade
classrooms on this floor. All of our classrooms
are brightly decorated and reflect the personality of the teacher.

In our primary classrooms the teacher works with small
groups of four or five students. |
| Each room has a rocking chair,
rug area, learning centers, plants,
and many have animals. |

Each classroom has a computer pod and
all our computers are connected to the Internet. |
| Teachers meet on the rug area for total activities. |

One fourth grade classroom
is
also on the main floor. This fourth grade room is our center
for teaching Indiana History and is filled with artifacts, and teaching
material about Indiana. Each fourth grade teacher also teachers reading,
spelling, health and science.
