The 6th Grade Scholars’ Bowl Team will host Mountain Brook this afternoon for our second match of the season! The match will be played in Mrs. Stephanie Horton’s classroom, A111. Two students will act as escorts to meet and greet the Mountain Brook team when they arrive at HMS.

Thanks to all the parents who come out to support our team! It is so encouraging to work with such terrific and thoughtful parents!
