HHS College American History students recently completed a Design Thinking Challenge that require creating a board game to share their understanding of capitalism and the industrial revolution. Friday morning, Mr. Hirsch's students traveled to EMS to share their game with the 7th & 8th grade G/T students. It was a fun hour of game play. Students also discussed the benefits and responsibilities of taking college classes while in high school.

Thanks to the fans that have supported the team all season, whether at home or away. Time now for off-season work — rest, train, and get ready to come back stronger next year!
