Trojan Times
By: Principal Mike Dufrene (December 7th)
Hello HHS,
Please remember, communication and effort is the key during virtual learning. Students, you must stay connected with all your teachers through Schoology, emails, and TEAMS. Our teachers are here to help you the best they can, but you must communicate with them and do the work that is provided the best you can. If you need help, ask for it!
Unfortunately, this Saturday's ACT testing scheduled at HHS has been canceled due to our current RED status. If you have questions, please contact Ms. Mihalko through email or schoology.
