“The opposite of poverty is not wealth. The opposite of poverty is justice.” ― Bryan Stevenson

As 2019 begins, administrators and teachers want to thank you for sending your child to HHA and for helping make our school great. School is about learning, dreaming and getting ready for the next grade, high school, college and eventually a good job. It is also about motivating each other to do our very best. The best teachers and students work and learn at HHA, and we are grateful to have your family as a part of our family.

Martin Luther King Day is fast approaching. His message of freedom, non-violence and justice resonate today. We seek peace abroad, economic security at home and kindness in our neighborhoods and schools. In the New Year, we hope for just and fair police enforcement and answers to address the murders in Baltimore City. We hope for sensible and humane immigration enforcement that targets dangerous criminals and permits families to live, work, and attend church and school in peace. We hope the work of the Kirwan Commission and Strong Schools Maryland add up to a world-class system of public schools that are adequately and equitably funded, even as full funding will take years to achieve. We hope for more space to increase the numbers of HHA families and thus expand our wonderful school. Finally, we hope that the New Year brings you and yours joy, peace and love. Happy 2019!
