[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been at Hardy afterschool a couple of time on the circulator.  Yes there were some kids that lack "home training."  But most were pretty well behaved.  Probably these kids were from lower SES homes, but do you really think that these kids will taint your child?  [/quote]

I think children who behave this way would waste my child's time in class and create a negative environment outside of class. I think their behavior (and likely corresponding lack of academic preparation) will limit the pace and depth of academic work.[/quote]

I agree.  I think a good number of Hardy students are poorly behaved.  My DC has cried several times over the year how much DC hates Hardy, but the thing is there aren't enough good MS choices in the city.  While the quality of students are questionable, so are the quality of faculty.  Hardy really needs to set a higher standard and live up to it.  They are always worried about not being at its full capacity.  Well, if they have higher standard to live by, naturally families will start to enroll at the school.  Deal must be doing something right and better.  Unfortunately, Hardy is not supported by a majority of their IB families and there are good reasons for it.[/quote]
