Guess what?!?! Summer service hours are due this Friday no later than 11:59pm – this is a hard deadline, so enter them ASAP. See Mrs. Brennan in WC203 no later than 3pm this Friday if you have any questions.

At each home football game this fall, Bowl and Barrel will sponsor a Field Goal kicking competition for HPHS seniors.  One senior will be announced at the pep rally on Fridays of each home game.  Seniors can sign-up in Mr. Heckman’s office.  The senior chosen will have 1 chance to make a field goal at the end of halftime.  If the kick is made, the senior will receive a $250 scholarship toward their college expenses.  If the kick is missed, the senior will receive a $100 restaurant gift card. 

Last weekend, members of the Highland Park High School Choral Department competed at the Region 20 Region and 9/10 Honor Choirs Audition.  Students spent the day competing for spots in the 9/10 Treble honor choir, 9/10 Tenor Bass honor choir, and All-Region choir.  

Of the 34 students who auditioned 11 of them will be advancing to the 3rd round, and placed in the region choir!  5 of the students placed in the top 5 in their respective voice part, including 2 1st place finishes.  

Of the 21 students who auditioned for the 9/10 honor choirs on Saturday, 20 made one of the 9/10 honor choirs!  9 of the students placed in the top 5 in their respective voice part, including 1 1st place finish!   

Would the Choir Students who placed in one of the choirs this weekend, PLEASE STAND IN YOUR CLASSROOMS AND BE RECOGNIZED NOW!  

Congratulations to these 32 students and good luck to those moving on to the Pre-Area round!
