Hello Hardy

Hello Hardy families,

Highlights from the Past Week

Kindergarten classes took part in novel engineering, having the chance to build bridges and ships using everyday building materials such as cardboard, construction paper, and masking tape.

On Friday, we had Buddies as students had the chance to do an activity with their assigned Buddies in a partner class. First and third graders played a memory based matching game. 

Staffing News

It is with mixed emotions that I share the news that beloved Hardy second grade teacher Mrs. Maggipinto has decided to retire at the end of this school year. Mrs. Maggipinto has served as a teacher at Hardy for 2 years but has taught overall for 31 years, 29 of which were in WPS. She has served as an amazing asset to our district! While we still have several months left this school year to benefit from the talent of Mrs. Maggipinto, please join me in congratulating Mrs. Maggipinto and letting her know how grateful we are for her incredible dedication to the Hardy students & the Wellesley community!

Note for Parents/Caregivers Doing Drop-off/Pick-up 

Parents/caregivers doing drop-off/pick-up are asked to be mindful that there is a marked crosswalk with zebra stripping that connects the handicapped parking spaces to the front plaza. We are now staffing this crosswalk with a staff member that has a handheld stop sign. Please follow the direction of this staff member and when the stop sign is in use, traffic should come to a complete stop, allowing students and staff members to safely cross. Thank you for your cooperation.

Attention First Grade Parents/Guardians

You are invited to our all school meeting this upcoming Friday at 8:45 AM in the cafeteria. This will be led by our first graders. 

Have a great week!

Respectfully yours,

Grant Smith

Principal
