[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Current Hardy Parent here, posting one more time to bring it all back home.

The facts - not speculation - from an actual Hardy parent's perspective.

1.  Some of the best students at Hardy are OOB students.   They come from wonderful homes; they care about learning, they care about their friends, and they are all-around great kids.

2.  There are some not so great OOB kids.  There are also some not-so-great IB kids.  Believe me, there is not a good kid/bad kid boundary that exists at the IB boundary.

3.  There is nothing - nothing - preventing good, smart kids with caring and involved parents from learning at Hardy today.   Those kids do great, and compete with their peers from Deal and other middle schools when they move on to Wilson, Walls, Banneker, and competitive privates.

4.  Hardy is getting even better, with strong leadership from Principal Pride and even more course offering and differentiation coming up next year.

You can believe all the unfounded speculation, you can get sidetracked in accusations of rascism and arguments over Hyde vs. Eaton as a Hardy feeder, but I implore you all to please keep those facts in mind as you consider Hardy for your IB or OOB student.
