Wow! It is actually beginning to feel like fall, and if you live in Texas you associate fall with football. We are very excited to welcome the Lovejoy Football players to Hart Elementary tomorrow for Reading with the Leopards. This is a great tradition where different high school groups come to the elementary school to read a book to them and answer questions. Our students love seeing the high schoolers. In our car line and bus line in the morning, they will be helping by opening car doors and welcoming our students to school.

As you are aware, we have a new gate in the back of our property, If you are driving and parking to wait for your walker, please park with the flow of the traffic and watch for children crossing the street. We have many students who walk home, and we do not want them to get hit. Also, when you are waiting in the car pick-up line in the afternoons, please leave a little space in between the vehicles. So, if someone needed to get out of the line, then they would be able to get out of the line. Thanks in advance for your help with these two things.

All My Best,

Wendy Craft

Books Bring Us Together!   The Fall book fair is here and will be open at Hart Elementary for in-person shopping all of next week!
