During the weekend, We lost a very bright person. Elise Kerch, was a Senior at Hardin Valley Academy. She played Volleyball, had straight A’s and was a environmentalist. She was amazing student, but a even better friend. As a tribute, Sarah Hayes and Ava Wooten made a beautiful statement on Hardin Valley grounds. They used the rock in front the school to show the beauty of Elise. 

Today, 10/08/2020

Hardin Valley students were told the painting on the rock would be taken down. To help us grieve and so the rock would be used for better purposes. 

All we want as students:

Give us at least 1 month to show the world. Who Elise Kerch is. The amazing, show-stopping, and jokester she will forever be. Please don’t take down her moral that fellow students made. 

By signing this petition:

You are helping us, prove that the painting on the rock should stay for a little while longer.

Thank you,
