East Hardy Elementary School is excited to welcome our students back and begin what promises to be a fantastic school year! Our children are our community’s greatest asset, and we are truly looking forward to the opportunity to help them grow and develop this year.
As parents and family members, your role is crucial in your student’s success. We ask that you ensure your children are at school on time each day and get adequate sleep so they can learn while in school. Additionally, we encourage you to have high expectations for your children. Please talk with them about their school experiences, discuss what they are learning, identify any challenges they face, and celebrate their successes. Help your children to set goals and work with them to achieve them. We believe that as caregivers, you are our most important partnership in your child’s education!
