Hardy at Home!
Hello! I hope this message continues to find you well and safe at home. I am hoping you will consider joining in on a special project. I have been speaking to our faculty and to our PTO leaders and we are going to launch “Hardy At Home.” It’s a simple thing. We are asking everyone who would like to participate to send a photograph of life at home. Mrs. Rabito and I will collect the photos of the teachers, and our PTO will help with collecting photos from families. We will create a slideshow and share it with everyone. Good wishes go out to everyone who is celebrating this week and next. I wish you well.
All my best,
Kate Peretz, Principal
Please click on the video above to see Principal Peretz at home and then click HERE to submit your photos to "Hardy at Home".
