This morning we welcomed Waldameer Mystery Files author, David Gorman - Author, to Harding!
Students in our after school book club program with Mrs. Musone read “The Sneaky Sabotage” and then had the opportunity to meet the author at a special family breakfast. Each student had a family member attend to enjoy a Waldameer-Mystery-Themed meal!
Following the Book Club Breakfast, Mr. Gorman also met with our 5th Grade Student Ambassadors to discuss how he followed his dreams to become an author - and the leadership skills it took to get there and become successful.
