Congratulations to the fourth through sixth grade classes at Harding Cordova for their outstanding performance of the Wizard of Oz. Snow days could not hold back the enthusiasm and dedication of these students and their teachers. Bravo!
What a difference a week makes! Just one week ago, a substantial portion of our Cherry Road campus was flooded, causing significant damage to our auditorium, counseling offices, classrooms, and hallways. Since that time, life at Harding has continued in strong and courageous ways. We hosted sub-state basketball games and sent both our boys and girls teams to the state tournament; we had all of our students back into their lockers and regular classrooms by Tuesday morning; we performed Jungle Book; we hosted Longing for Glory concert; and, without missing a beat, we continued to focus what we do best: teaching, learning, and taking care of young people…
The Institution of Faith and the Arts (IFA), in conjunction with the White Station Parent’s Club, brought in book author, S.D. Smith, to speak in chapel at White Station. After chapel, Smith held a creative writing workshop with Harding sixth graders including the Cordova sixth graders who came to White Station for the opportunity. Later that morning, he went to the upper school and spoke Kayla Pharr’s 3rd period (10:00 – 10:45) creative writing class.
