Education is not the filling of a pail but the lighting of a fire. ........... teacher, father, husband, friend, and learner.

And the winner is period 2! Most creative design. HMS students created beautiful cut tissue paper designs known as PAPEL PICADO in Spanish class. This helps to celebrate the Latin American holiday Día de los Muertos/ Day of the Dead. #DayOfTheDead #hpsdawesome
