Hello! I am Mrs. Ard and this 2023-2024 school year will be my second year teaching first grade! Before last year, I taught third grade here at Hilltop Elementary. I received my B.S. in Elementary/Special Education from Middle Georgia State University in 2018 and have taught at Hilltop ever since. I am so excited for this school year! Thank you for the opportunity to serve you and your child this school year. It is going to be a great year!
