HHS School counselors visit English IV classrooms each fall to speak with students about creating resumes and cover letters. Here, they are working with seniors in Mr. Makarewicz's room. Students use these resumes and cover letters to apply for jobs, colleges, and scholarships. It's just another way our counselors and teachers ensure HHS students are ready for life after high school.
Varsity Volleyball defeated Collinsville in 2 sets tonight to begin the season.
They will have their home opener Tuesday 8/29 vs Carlinville. Go Bulldogs!

-Water breaks of 3-5 minutes will be taken every quarter at the 8 minute mark and 4 minute mark, and quarter breaks will be extended as needed
-Halftime will be extended by five minutes from 15 minutes to 20 minutes to allow more recovery time and increased hydration
