This event could not have been possible without the involvement of not only our Hardy Community,
but students from Wellesley College and the Wellesley High School. In recognition of their generosity
we would like to acknowledge and thank the following volunteers for their investment in time and
resources to further education and inspire our children in multiple STEM workshops. In addition, we
should all thank Charlene Cook and the PTO for their support!
