GOOD AFTERNOON HMS FAMILIES:
The week was short and sweet, but we still have some new information and pictures to share! This weekend marks so many social media holidays, but the ones that sound the most comforting are playing a game of Trivial Pursuit while eating a big bowl of spaghetti (National Trivia and Spaghetti days are 1/4/25).
Please take a moment to review a few important updates and reminders.
