  • Welcome to 2026! HJT1 Family eNewsletter 1/14/26

    Hartford Jt. 1 Jottings Family eNewsletter January 14, 2026 Dare Greatly in 2026! Over winter break, my husband, our kids, and my parents traveled to Peru and Ecuador– six of us spanning three generations! We explored Lima, Paracas, Cusco, Machu Picchu, Rainbow Mountain, and the Galapagos Islands. Along the way, we learned about Incan innovation, Peruvian culture, wildlife evolution, and what it looks like to Dare Greatly as a family! Just how did we Dare Greatly as a family? We tried many new things… From riding dune buggies in the desert; to riding a train to Machu Picchu and then hiking up Montana Waynapicchu; taking a boat taxi (seriously – a taxi that was a boat!); to snorkeling with turtles, sharks, rays, and even a seahorse– curiosity led the way. Some things were unfamiliar, but trying new experiences builds confidence -- just like trying a new sport, book, or instrument at school. We challenged ourselves… Cusco, Peru, sits at 11,000 feet above sea level. That meant slowing down, adjusting, and supporting each other as we acclimated to the thinner air. Learning often looks like that -- pacing ourselves, asking for help, and sticking with it. We practiced lifelong learning… In the Sacred Valley, we watched weavers demonstrate traditional dyeing and weaving techniques, visited salt mines used since Incan times, learned how microclimates shaped agriculture (the tiered farming layers – so cool!), and visited the Charles Darwin Research facility! Experiencing another culture expands understanding -- just like research, reading, and conversations do in class. We encouraged each other and stuck together… With kids, grandparents, (and a speedy husband) traveling together, teamwork mattered. Someone translated (me), someone set the pace (husband and kids at the front, me in the middle, my parents at the end!), someone kept track of tickets and snacks (again… me!). Courage is often collective, not individual. Our trip reminded me that Daring Greatly isn’t about perfection– it’s about progress and perspective. We had a plan, we prepared for that plan, and when we ran into challenges, we persevered… and redefined the term “misadventures” as a fun way to describe our unexpected adventures!  Now that winter break is over and we are back in school, I encourage each of you (students and adults) to Dare Greatly when you: Ask tough questions Try again after a setback or failure (it’s only temporary if you try again!) Make a new friend (a skill at any age!) Read something challenging (I read eight books on the trip… three that were professional books and five for fun) Share an idea aloud Choose curiosity over comfort Take healthy risks Support each other Dare Greatly… Every Day! Whether on a mountain trail, in the ocean, or in a classroom, growth happens when we show up and try our best. I am so grateful and appreciative to be a part of our Hartford community. Here’s to courage, curiosity, and a strong second half of the school year!
