Hello Hardy families,
On Wednesday, we celebrated International Walk to School Day. It was great to see so many Hardy families who walked to school (or students who participated by doing special walking laps upon arrival)!
Music teacher Mr. Corcoran and first grade teacher Mrs. Lilley handed out special stickers for participants.

Parent-Teacher Conference sign up
As a reminder, parent-teacher conferences are scheduled for Oct. 27, Nov. 2 & 3. Classroom teachers are in the process of sharing information about conference sign-up. Families have the choice between doing these in-person or virtual (Zoom-based).
