I is for igloo.
After you finish your remote learning for the day, see if you can SAFELY take a walk on this slightly warmer day. You never know what you'll find. One of the HM Patriots found this igloo.
We miss you Patriots.

💛💚 At Hugh Mercer, we like to celebrate the good. One way we celebrate is by recognizing accomplishments like perfect attendance. When a class has perfect attendance for the day, they get to display these Perfect attendance signs!! Attendance matters because you matter. 💛💚
