🗳️Mock Election at Hannibal Middle School! 🗳️ Ms. Hagenah and Mr. Harvey are hosting a mock election at HMS this week, giving students an interactive and inspiring lesson on democracy! Together, students learn that it’s not about who you vote for, but about the importance of participating and respecting the process. This experience is a fantastic way to introduce students to the power and responsibility of voting. Each student received their very own "voter registration card" to keep as a memorable token of this experience, emphasizing that voting is a powerful right and responsibility we all share as Americans.🇺🇸 #HannibalProud #TogetherWeThrive
