[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would it be possible for hardy kids to get access to deal programs not offered by hardy?  Not only for sports like crew and lacrosse, but other after school enrichment programs. [/quote]

I have in mind Hardy kids joining deal teams and after school activities.[/quote]

Are you kidding?  It's hard enough for Deal kids to get on certain Deal teams.  Combining Hardy with Deal for athletic purposes would totally put sports teams out of reach for some kids, not to mention that practical issues of ferrying kids up and down Wisconsin Avenue.  Why doesn't Hardy build out its own athletic program and other activities more??[/quote]

Sigh.  Hardy does in fact have a full slate of sports and other activities - but I wouldn't expect anyone to actually check that fact before making false implications about Hardy not having such activities.

Frankly, I think Deal has too much of an emphasis on athletic programs.   It would be a much better school if they encouraged kids to focus on academics instead of glorifying athletics so much.

Surely you then know the answer to the oft-asked, never-answered question: where do they play?

According to the website Hardy has:
Football
Indoor and Outdoor Track
Volleyball
Basketball
Golf
Tennis
Baseball
Soccer

(http://www.hardyms.org/extracurricular/interscholastic-2ports)
Volleyball, basketball and indoor track I would presume are in the gym. Tennis, there are courts on-site. So where do the football, golf, baseball, soccer and outdoor track teams practice and play?[/quote]
