Principal Snyder's Weekly Update

Good evening, Hugh Mercer Students and Families,       

This is your principal, Mr. Snyder, with your weekly update for the upcoming week. 

I hope everyone is enjoying their Monday holiday and taking part in the surprisingly nice weather for February. We start our after-school clubs and academic support groups this week. Tuesdays will be for Math support; Thursdays will be for Reading support and Wednesdays will be our clubs for grades 3 to grades 5.  

It is that time of year as we plan for our FCPS Family/Faculty March Madness Basketball Tournament. The first game will be March 7, and Hugh Mercer was selected to play Walker-Grant Middle School that evening. Come out to JMHS to support us. Doors open at 5:30pm. Game starts at 6pm. 

Information on joining the team was sent home in student folders, but if you are interested in participating, please contact our main office, (540) 372-1115.

On Friday, February 23, we will have our Black History Month Celebration assemblies to recognize our Black History Month contest winners and to recognize two members of our Fredericksburg community for their accomplishments and contributions to Fredericksburg.  

As always, we are looking forward to another productive and positive week ahead. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. Your partnership is essential, and working together ensures the success of every Hugh Mercer student.   

I hope you enjoy your evening and look forward to a wonderful week ahead.

Goodnight,  

Mr. Snyder
