Dear Parents,
We have thus far been having a great school year with your students! As we move through the year, please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns. We are thrilled to have all of you partnering with us in your child’s education to ensure they have a great school experience!

Wells Fargo Grant

Last month, Harding was honored to receive a grant from Wells Fargo bank. We were identified as a community school that Wells Fargo was interested in helping and were fortunate to receive a $70,000 grant in order to make upgrades and improvement to the school.

Some of the improvements made to the school were regular painting, upgrades to the faculty room, a beautiful mural in the playground tunnel, and most importantly, some perks for students. In the cafeteria, sound boards and television monitors have been or will be installed, along with curtains and plants to make the environment more calming. In addition, several diner-style booths were purchased so students are able to earn the reward of sitting there for there lunch as well. We will also be purchasing some new technology, including a 3D printer and virtual reality goggles for students to enhance their education.

A medida que avanzamos el año, no dude en contactarnos si tiene alguna pregunta o inquietud. ¡Estamos encantados de que todos ustedes se hayan asociado con nosotros en la educación de su hijo para garantizar que tengan una excelente experiencia escolar!

Beca departe de Wells Fargo

El mes pasado, Harding tuvo el honor de recibir una Beca del banco Wells Fargo. Fuimos identificados como una escuela comunitaria que Wells Fargo estaba interesada en ayudar y tuvimos la suerte de recibir una Beca de $ 70,000 con el fin de mejorar la escuela.

Algunas de las mejoras realizadas en la escuela fueron la pintura regular, mejoras en la sala de profesores, un hermoso mural en el túnel del patio de recreo y, lo que es más importante, algunos beneficios para los estudiantes. En la cafetería, se han instalado o se instalarán paneles de sonido y monitores de televisión, junto con cortinas y plantas para que el ambiente sea más calmante. Además, se compraron varios puestos estilo “Diner” para que los estudiantes puedan ganar la recompensa de sentarse allí para almorzar también. También compraremos alguna tecnología nueva, incluyendo una impresora 3D ygafas de realidad virtual para que los estudiantes mejoren su educación.
