Tiger Talk Issue XXIV, February 12, 2019
Dear HSE Parents/Guardians,
As part of our ongoing efforts to provide our students and staff with a safe and healthy learning environment, we contracted experts to apply germ disinfection and antimicrobial treatment. Our school building has been disinfected with EPA registered hospital grade disinfectants on February 1st 2019 to prevent the spread of germs and microbes during this Flu season. Our school facility is now now certified and protected by the germ experts. We wish all of our students and families a healthy and successful year!

CRLP Trip to Texas A&M University Aggieland Saturday 2/9
Howdy!
HSE CRLP Students joined Texas A&M University Aggieland Saturday, the last Saturday, Feb 9th. Our student had an opportunity to meet current students and our alumni, learned more about the colleges and majors, got information about admission, financial aid, scholarships, etc. and some promotional items. We also had taken a guided tour and seen the beautiful sites on the A&M Campus, enjoyed the performance of Corps of Cadets and had wonderful dining. I would like to thank you to all of our marvelous CRLP Mentors, Mr. Taskin, Ms. Henry, Ms. Perez, Mr. Oksuz and Ms. Wang. Here are some of the pictures from the trip:

NHS Blood Drive for the American Red Cross
Blood is the most precious gift that anyone can give to another person — the gift of life. A decision to donate your blood can save a life, or even several if your blood is separated into its components — red cells, platelets, and plasma — which can be used individually for patients with specific conditions. So come by on March 1st, and help save lives! If we receive 35 pints, our NHS seniors are eligible for a scholarship!
