The Harford Academy PTA is hosting a May Day celebration featuring vendors, food, and family-friendly fun.

⏰ 10 AM – 2 PM
📍 Harford Academy (100 Thomas Run Road, Bel Air, MD)
Bring your family and friends and come enjoy a great day with our community—we hope to see you there!

On Friday, March 20th, 7th grade students from Edgewood Middle School visited Harford Academy to build relationships and foster connection with same-age peers. During the visit, students practiced communication skills using a total communication approach and explored how everyone learns differently. The experience highlighted the power of inclusive learning, and both schools look forward to continuing opportunities that strengthen the connection between their students.

Each week, we’re excited to celebrate one of our amazing staff members who helps build the strong foundation for our students’ success. This week’s Master Builder is… 🏆
