Dear Hart Families,
Happy St. Patrick's Day! It was so fun to see our students and staff in green today. We are very excited for our 3rd and 4th graders to show off their talent tomorrow morning. Our Kindergarten - 2nd grade students will have the opportunity to watch the Talent Show in their classroom. I can't wait to see all of the awesome talent.
Did you know that each day a student is absent that it costs our district approximately $50? If your child is ill, we definitely want them to stay at home, but if your child can come to school, then we need them here so they can LEARN! This week we were in next to last place. I know that the Hart community can do better than this!

World Down Syndrome Day:
Monday, March 21st Every year, on March 21st, people all around the world come together to celebrate World Down Syndrome Day by wearing brightly colored, mismatched socks. March 21st is symbolic because people with Down syndrome have 3 copies of their 21st chromosome. We hope to have lots of student and staff participation at Hart Elementary by everyone wearing their bright, mismatched, and fun socks on Monday, March 21st!
