Harrison High School is in Kennesaw, Georgia. In a school district that by far exceeds the standards of the state of Georgia, Harrison High School stands near the top of the list in both academic excellence and athletic achievement. Illustrating the school's standard of excellence is the tennis team which stands as one of the best in the state of Georgia year in and year out. Along with a stellar tennis team, the school's academic superiority is demonstrated by the Model United Nations Team, which is rarely competed with in the Cobb County District or any other.

The tennis team may be recognized as one of the best in the state of Georgia, but Harrison is also well known for their lacrosse team which is one of the best programs in the nation. They are led by a phenomenal coaching staff and stout defense.

Their outstanding "Gamers Club" holds annual tournaments. The Latin Club offers fantastic gatherings. Save the Whales is a club well known for their great T-shirts.
