Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

They all came in uniform. Even the parents.

Hardy's instructional superintendent as well as Councilmember Mary Cheh were also there. It was a great event and makes me feel really good about our family's decision to go to Hardy next year.

Hooray! Just think. In three years or less, the "What's wrong with Hardy" threads will be extinct.

"Janney Toe-Shoe Dad" threads, you're next!

When I send my kid to Hardy, I'm going to tell him to comply as little as possible with the Uniform without actually violating it. All the other IB kids will probably do the same thing. Over time, it won't even look like a uniform any more, just slightly conservative attire. Basically it won't allow hoodies or short skirts, but no one's got a problem with that.

For fuck's sake, enough with the uniform obsession.

I attended with my family and agree it was a great event. It was wonderful to see families from all the feeder schools interacting. The two Hardy faculty I spoke with were absolutely terrific and made me feel really good about the kind of learning going on through enrichment classes and activities. It's really exciting to see genuine enthusiasm for the school.

But if you're looking for a magic number I can't help you. This I know...hardy will thrive with or without IB families. IB should do their wallets and gas tanks a solid and eschew charters and privates and enroll at Hardy. But it's a very personal decision for families and you should do what is best for you. Hardy is best for us.

This IB family, who attended the Social and had lots of fun and inspiring conversations with current Hardy parents and staff (Principal, math teacher), agrees!
We are in for next year at Hardy!
