Note from Mrs. Craft
Dear Hart Families,
It's been a wonderful start to the third quarter! The kids (and adults) jumped right back into our routines. As much as we love a long break, it is really nice to get back in the groove.
On Monday and Tuesday, our staff spent time refocusing, reconnecting, and planning for our second semester to reach all of our goals. Each teacher chose a word that will be their mantra this semester to help us on our journey. Great things are happening at Hart Elementary!
At our mid-year convocation, Hart Elementary earned 2nd place in the annual Lip-Sync Battle - "Team Lovejoy Rocks: An 80s Hair Band Experience." A big thank you to Tori Dodd, Brittney Crews, Kristin Dawson, Rena Gore, and Kelsie Hebert for representing our team.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out at anytime.
All My Best,
Wendy Craft

My mission is to be a servant leader who works with students, parents, and staff to build a community that fosters relationships and learning where everyone THRIVES. Each day, I strive to make the choice to be great versus comfortable, because you can't be both!

- As a reminder, please do not send your child to school if he/she has:
- A fever of 100.0 degrees or greater
- Vomiting or diarrhea
- An infection that requires antibiotics (i.e. strep throat, bronchitis, pink eye, etc.) unless they have been on antibiotics for a full 24 hours.
