Hicksville Schools

This senior joined us for one last Uno Flip game today. The library LOVES our seniors! Congratulations and best wishes to ALL of you!

Mrs. Gerken's Drama I students were lucky enough to have a guest speaker today, former HHS student Gunnar Carwile. Gunnar is gearing up to graduate with a BFA in theater from Youngstown University. He plans to eventually move to a larger city to pursue his acting career. Gunnar educated the students on different types of theater classes, such as stage combat, directing, acting, movement, stage management, puppetry, and much, much more. He also talked about auditioning, speaking skills, and college in general. It is so wonderful when students come back to share their knowledge and success. Thank you, Gunnar! You make HHS proud!

Students in Ms. Yeaser's History Study Skills class memorized all 50 state capitals! They were rewarded with lunch from Dairy Delite. Great job Adriana, Angel, and Kaleb!
