Hello Hardy

Highlights from the past week:
*On Thursday, we had Bingo Night. Thanks to the 5th grade families for planning this night of family fun and community building!

Fifth graders promoting Bingo Night at morning drop off.

 

*On Friday, we had a School Spirit Day. It was great to see students showing off their Hardy and Hawks spirit!

 

Calendar reminder

We will have no school this upcoming Friday in recognition of Good Friday.

Placement Process 

It is time for us to begin the 2023-2024 placement process for students currently in grades K-4 (along with placing our incoming Kindergarten students). A great deal of time and consideration is given to achieving our goal, which is to make the best possible placement for every child at Hardy as we work to create balanced and heterogeneous classes. 

Your child’s teacher will work with the other member(s) of their grade level team, including special educators, specialists, and me to create effective instructional groups. The following factors will be considered: class size, gender, social relationships that work well in the classroom environment, and individual learning characteristics. 

If you feel you have a significant concern about an emotional, social, or academic issue that you think that we are not yet aware of, you are welcome to complete a Serious Concerns Form. As our goal is to form well-balanced classrooms, we cannot consider:

  1. Requests for specific teachers or teaching/personality styles

  2. Requests to be with specific friends

While this form is optional, if you wish to share any serious concerns, please complete the following form by Friday, April 14th. Parent input submitted after this date will not be considered. 

See link for optional serious concerns form:

Groundbreaking Ceremony

As a reminder, we will have our groundbreaking ceremony for the new Hardy School this upcoming Thursday morning at 9:00 AM. This will take place at the end of Hardy Road and will be standing room (or bring your own camp chair) only. We look forward to celebrating the building of the new Hardy!

Have a great week!

Respectfully yours,
Grant Smith
Principal
