Our Program
Harmony Hills is a Title I school in the Wheaton Cluster.
Parent education and empowerment are critical focus areas for us. Each fall and spring, each grade level hosts Family Math and Family Reading Nights. Parents and children come to school and learn together and leave with materials that can be used at home. Parents are involved in our decision-making bodies: the School Improvement Team, and committees such as the Family Involvement, Discipline, Technology,Gifted and Talented Committees and the On-Site EmergencyTeam . Together, parents, community members and staff provide a wide range of opportunities for students to learn and grow.
