Dear HMS Families,
We hope the new year brings healthy, happy times ahead for you and yours, and for all of us together.
Our focus this past week has been on welcoming our students back to school and ensuring that they have a safe, comfortable space to ask questions, continue their learning, and explore their interests and passions. Tom and I want to recognize the exceptional, ongoing efforts of the HMS staff as they guide our students through this school year.
Thank you for taking time to review the updates below, which include some joyful information that we are excited to share with you along with some important information that needs your attention.
With Thanks,

HMS Students Create An Important Public Service Announcement
We are thankful to Sabina Petrucci, Jude Landry, Molly Vickers, Avella Merriam, and Ms. Grover for the important public service announcement they created in their General Music class. These civic-minded students took the time to share essential reminders about keeping ourselves safe and healthy as a community. They did so in a fun and engaging way: A Public Service Announcement from Ms. Grover's Students
