HMS Community Read November 14th 7-8pm in the Hopkinton Middle School Library

Please join us for the inaugural HMS Community Read on November 14th from 7 - 8pm in the Hopkinton Middle School library.  Students and families are invited to read Jacqueline Woodson’s Harbor Me and to come together for an evening to engage in discussions and activities centered around the book.  As the characters discover in the novel, time spent together sharing their stories is a powerful way to build connection and community.  Likewise, we hope that this event will serve to further grow  our “active community of strong minds and kind hearts” at HMS.  On November 14th we have the opportunity  to make connections with one another and to celebrate diversity, creativity, and respect. All readers in your home are welcome to attend!  If you will be able to join us, please fill out the  HMS Community Read RSVP form.
