| Homer Brink teacher, Hilary Squier is the March META/Liberty Mutual Teacher of the Month. |
Fellow META teacher Lynn Ross nominated Hilary for this honor because she is an inspiration, "I have witnessed over and over again how one person with energy, enthusiasm, and a beautifully kind soul can make the world a better place for many,” said Ross. “Hilary sees the potential in all of us. I find her moral compass inspiring.”
Hilary is an important co-director of the HB Morning Program. She uses her cheer, intuition, and determination to make many Morning Program initiatives successful, such as the Pajamas and Blankets program, the Veterans Day event, and Grandparents’ Tea.
Hilary also runs the HB talent show. She established the “Squier Choir,” a vocal performance group of over 50 children from HB and MM. Students have weekly lessons and perform for the community.
“The songs chosen and environment created by Mrs. Squier in her children’s choir are a shining example of how to effectively teach character education outside of the classroom,” said Ross. “For its members, the choir is a venue for building self-confidence and acceptance.”
Liberty Mutual representative David Harding presented Mrs. Squier with a gift certificate, and a certificate of recognition. Liberty Mutual will engrave her name on the plaque presented to the district.
