Grandparents Day
Please remember to invite your childs grandparents to come and celebrate Grandparents Day
with us on Friday, September 25. There will be a special reception for grandparents from 8:00
until 8:30. Then we will present a special chapel program for our grandparents at 8:30. If your
childs grandparents are not able to attend, you might want to invite a special senior friend.
Those planning to attend should RSVP at www.HardingLions.org/GrandparentsDay.

Conference Day
I would like to thank you
ahead of time for taking
time out of your busy
schedules to meet with me
today for our conferences. I
am looking forward to
visiting with all of you and
getting to know you a little
bit better.

The Adventures of
Pinocchio

Harding Academy is opening its theatre
season with The Adventures of Pinocchio.
Performances will be September 24 - 26 at
Cherry Road. Many of our older White
Station students are in this production, so
I know that your children would enjoy
seeing them. This is a play that will be
fun for the whole family. There is a
special Thursday evening performance
for lower school students with free
admission if you RSVP by September 22.

Spelling and Memory

Verse
We will have a spelling test and
memory verse test on Friday of
next week. The new spelling list
and memory verse are both being
sent home today in your childs
folder.
