This is a mandatory meeting for all seniors. Seniors will go to third period for attendance and then immediately to the HCPA.

       

      Senior Order Day

      Jostens will be on campus for Senior order day at HHS on Thursday, Sept. 16th during lunch at school in the Cafeteria. 

       

      Every school across the entire country graduates at the exact same time, so it is important that we plan ahead and order now.
