HOCO 2018!
How about them hallway decorations the Sophomores did? 🤔 The hallway decoration judges are going to have a tough decision to make.





We had a few teachers give the same advice, so it must be good! Here it is: Get to know your professors! Sign up for classes with the ones you like. Use their office hours to ask questions.

Our first college advice comes from our very own Mrs. Sigrist! She recommends visiting your parents at least once per month, and always responding to your mom's text messages.
