Harding Elementary February Newsletter

Dear Harding Families,
We are now into the month of February and it's hard to believe we are officially past the half way point of the school year. As we reflect on our strengths and weaknesses this year we will analyze and renew our goals for the remaining four months of the school year. The students will need to work hard to make strong gains in their learning. Parents your ongoing support of your child's learning is vital to their success.
Our last formal Parent Teacher conferences are this month February 13, 2020 from 3:30 9:00 p.m. our goal is to have 100% parent participation. We will have a Valentine's Day Dinner Dance during conferences. After you meet with your child/ren teacher you will come to the cafeteria for dinner and dancing. You should receive a letter or a phone call from your child's teacher to set up these conference times soon. If you are unable to make it please contact your child's teacher to set up an alternative time to meet. We look forward to seeing you all soon.
February marks a month long celebration of “Black History”. It is an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate the history and achievements of African Americans. Across grade levels, students will be celebrating Black History Month. Throughout the month, students will be learning about famous African-Americans who have been important and celebrated contributors to our history.
My hope for the month of February is peace and tolerance. As a great man once said, “Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.”
