GOOD AFTERNOON HMS FAMILIES:
Everyone enjoyed celebrating Spirit Week! Check out the photos in the recap.
In addition to Valentine’s Day and Presidents’ Day, this weekend also includes: World Whale Day (Sunday) and National Acts of Kindness Day (Monday).
If weather permits, take a trip to a local aquarium. Surprise someone with a genuine smile and a compliment! We believe acts of kindness should be sprinkled throughout every day, not just February 15th.
Have a great long weekend!
Please take a moment to review a few important updates and reminders.
