[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Child currently attends Hardy and its fine. I get very little if any communication from their teachers and when I email to ask something I rarely get a response. No, I am not emailing often. My child has repeatedly had to share tablets because they either don’t have enough to go around or they are broken. Teachers are hit or miss. Some are amazing and some clearly hate their jobs. It’s disappointing because the feeder elementary schools are exceptional so Hardy feels like a step down. [/quote]

Parent of current Hardy 8th grader here and this is very far from our experience. Teachers have always been responsive and our kid uses a Chromebook when necessary (never a tablet so perhaps that was a typo?) and has never complained of lacking access. But also they don’t use machines too much in class which we are very pleased with as we want DC off screens more than on!

If you are not getting responses, I suggest you escalate to your grade level AP who are all excellent and will make sure your needs are addressed

Middle school is definitely a different place than ES - as it should be. The kids are learning more independence and executive function. It’s a transition for sure, but Hardy is a great community![/quote]
