hm room
Home room


Explanation:
In the US and Canada, students move from classroom to classroom throughout the day, but usually have a "home room", where they meet in the morning for announcements. The teacher whose classroom it is logs in their absences and has other administrative responsibilities for his/her home room group.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Jessica Noyes: Yes, you're right to answer in Spanish. Since the HM has a number, it's probably "aula", but still this doesn't convey the meaning of "home" room. Probably not too important in this context, though. Aula 122.
