Respect, Belonging, Accountability, Creativity, Love

Dear HMR Families,

As we embrace this season of giving thanks, we want to express our deepest gratitude for each of you and the warmth you bring to our school community. Every day, we see the wonderful impact of your support, whether it's through volunteering, attending events, or simply cheering on our students from the sidelines. Your dedication to our school is invaluable, and we’re so grateful to have families like yours who create such a caring and supportive environment for our children to thrive.

This season is a perfect time to reflect on the importance of working together to nurture a positive school climate and culture. By joining hands as families, teachers, and staff, we can continue to make our school a place where every child feels valued and supported. Thank you for all that you do to help make our school community so special. Let’s keep this spirit of togetherness strong as we move into a new year, building a joyful, welcoming space for all.

Wishing you Joy and Gratitude,

Mrs. Ostrom

Mrs. Shultis
