[quote=Anonymous]I think parents who are interested in Hardy should attend an open house, and engage with the (awesome) principal on questions including the above. The principal has been working intensely with feeder school parents and current parents to build on Hardy's strengths. What appealed to me was the small scale, and the quality of science and math teaching; also the music program. But it's not something I can be summarize in a bumper sticker, like "Mandarin is important to our family." (Though I think Hardy may be part of Confucius classrooms.) Now that my child is close to middle school, the charter school "flavor-of-the-month" approach has lost its appeal. Now that I know my child better, I know what she needs, and I know I need to actually visit a school perhaps several times to make sure a chool can meet her interests/needs.[/quote]
