Our Vision

In the early 1920’s Mr. Richard Hardy founded the Richard City and Deptford Independent School District. The school was established based upon Mr. Hardy’s Creed, which has remained as the cornerstone for all that has been accomplished here since those early days. The messages therein are timeless; a set of guiding principles which remain strong in today’s time. Therefore, our vision is simply to create and maintain a learning environment for the Richard Hardy community which upholds the principles set forth in Mr. Hardy’s creed and provides the necessary preparation for our students to achieve the kind of life well-lived that Richard Hardy envisioned.
