It was great having some former students tour HHSS today … 50 years after their graduation!

2 of their former teachers, Mr Brohman and Mr Glidden, also joined the tour.

Thank you to some of our amazing students who took time after exams to give the tours! They learned a lot about the school’s history during that tour!

Have a wonderful 50th HHSS reunion weekend!
