Thanksgiving Break Reminder Letter
November 11, 2022
Dear Families,
We are thankful!
As we prepare to take a short break from school for Thanksgiving, we want to express our gratitude to everyone who makes it possible for students to come to school every day, on time and ready to learn. We thank:
● Our students and families for making daily attendance a priority. This habit of attendance will help them do well in the classroom.
● Our wonderful teachers pour their energy into making each classroom an exciting place for exploration and knowledge.
● Our support staff and community volunteers who provide the extra hands and attention for our children’s needs.
We appreciate each one of you so much. We look forward to seeing you after the Thanksgiving holiday. Our campus will close from November 21-25, 2022. We will reopen Monday, November 28th at 7:00 a.m.
We especially appreciate everyone’s efforts to avoid taking extra days off during the Thanksgiving holiday. Just a few missed days here and there, even if they’re excused absences, can add up to too much lost learning time and leave your child behind in school. This is as true in kindergarten as it is in high school.
Sincerely,
Mr. Huseyin Topcu
Principal, Harmony School of Technology
11 de noviembre de 2022
Queridas familias,
¡Estamos agradecidos!
Mientras nos preparamos para tomar un breve descanso de la escuela para el Día de Acción de Gracias, queremos expresar nuestro agradecimiento a todos los que hacen posible que el mayor número de estudiantes vengan a la escuela todos los días, a tiempo, listos para aprender. Agradecemos:
● Nuestros estudiantes y familias por hacer de la asistencia diaria una prioridad ya que saben que el hábito de asistencia les ayudará a tener un buen desempeño en el salón de clases y eventualmente en el trabajo.
● Nuestros maravillosos maestros ponen su energía en hacer de cada salón de clases un lugar emocionante para la exploración y el conocimiento para que los niños no quieran perderse el aprendizaje.
● Nuestro personal de apoyo y voluntarios de la comunidad que brindan las manos y la atención adicionales que necesitan nuestros niños.
Apreciamos mucho a cada uno de ustedes. Esperamos verlos después de las vacaciones de Acción de Gracias. Recuerden que la escuela estára cerrada La semana de Noviembre 21-25 del 2022, y reabre el lunes 28 de noviembre a las 7:00 a.m.
Agradecemos especialmente los esfuerzos de todos para evitar tomarse días libres adicionales durante las vacaciones de Acción de Gracias. Solo unos pocos días perdidos aquí y allá, incluso si son ausencias justificadas, pueden sumar demasiado tiempo de aprendizaje perdido y dejar a su hijo en la escuela. Esto es tan cierto en el jardín de infancia como en la escuela secundaria.
Sinceramente,
Mr. Huseyin Topcu
Principal, Harmony School of Technology

Dyslexia Awareness Month
October is in the United States. Let’s deepen our understanding of this language-based challenge and try to raise awareness in our community.
Eight-year-old Evan is one of the brightest children in his third-grade class. He has a wonderful vocabulary and knows everything there is to know about baseball—he can even tell you who played in each of the last ten World Series games and who won. But when it comes to reading about baseball—or anything else—Evan has a lot of trouble. It takes him a long time to read each word, and even longer to read whole sentences. He often has to guess at how you say a word—and sometimes his guess is wrong. Reading out loud is especially stressful and embarrassing. His teacher recently told Evan’s parents that she thinks he might have dyslexia.
Most people assume that part of being smart is being able to read well. About 100 years ago, though, doctors figured out that some people, even some very smart people who do really well at many other things, have trouble learning to read. This difficulty with reading is called dyslexia.

Welcome to 2022-23: A message from CEO Fatih Ay
Dear Harmony Families & Team Members,
Welcome back!
With a new year comes new opportunities and a time for new beginnings. We believe this school year is going to be filled with more opportunities than ever for achievement, exploration, and inspiration for our students and team members across Texas.
This year, Harmony is proud to welcome its largest class ever – roughly 42,000 students – to our 60 campuses. Harmony also experienced its largest batch of new student applicants – more than 50,000 – for this school year. Neither of these accomplishments could have been possible without the support of our Harmony families and staff members sharing the good word about their school with friends, neighbors, and families. For that, we owe you our thanks.
Whether your family is new to Harmony or you’ve been with us for years, Harmony will offer each of our scholars the same high-quality, STEM-focused education filled with opportunities to connect and engage with their schools, teachers, and classmates.
Though it has been only a few days since the first of our schools opened for the 2022-23 school year, already we have some exciting news to share. This week, the Texas Education Agency released its first State Accountability Ratings since the start of the pandemic. We are excited to report that five HPS districts and 23 HPS campuses earned a perfect “A” rating on this key report. Two districts and 32 campuses also received “B” ratings. Collectively, Harmony was the highest scoring major Texas charter school network in terms of the percentage of campuses which scored a “B” or better.
These results come on the heels of some extraordinary spring STAAR test results, which found that statewide not only had most of our students made up any achievement loss caused by the COVID pandemic, but in the majority of our schools, our students actually scored higher than they did pre-pandemic. Despite these successes, the work to help our students fully rebound from the pandemic will continue throughout 2022-23, as we continue to emphasize additional learning acceleration and ongoing emotional well-being support for our students.
Our TEA Ratings and STAAR scores are just a couple of the reasons why we’re so excited to begin another school year, but there are plenty more. In addition to our normal annual programs and initiatives, Harmony will be focusing on several key areas this school year:
As you can see, we all have a lot to look forward to this year.
On behalf of our team members, faculty and staff, I would like to welcome you and your family to the 2022- 2023 school year. We look forward to getting to know your family better this school year and sharing all that Harmony has to offer.
Sincerely,
CEO | Harmony Public Schools
We are Harmony Proud of all the hard-working teachers and students who helped our campus earn a post-pandemic “A” accountability rating by the Texas Education Agency! Way to go, Harmony School of Technology!

The uniform color options don’t look like the ones I see above
– is something wrong?
There might be a minor color variation between the preview image on the French Toast website and the images above, but not by much. If the uniform you’re selecting doesn’t look right, just make sure you have the correct dress code selected from the drop down near the top of your screen.
Why can’t I just order uniforms directly at my campus anymore?
Unfortunately, year-round direct sales of school uniforms can be a complicated and time-consuming process for an individual campus. We’d rather put our team’s talents to use by serving our students. By partnering with an industry-leading school uniform supply company like French Toast, Harmony is able to keep uniform costs down for families while freeing up school staff (and storage space!) to focus on the other needs of our schools.
No returns or exchanges.
Uniforms will no longer be available for purchase at campuses.
