Workin' it

Students employed at HHS

            A huge part of growing up is getting a job.  Working teaches responsibility, time management and future work ethic.  It tears students away from their computers, video games, cell phones and forces them to get a little taste of what life in the real world is all about. The biggest perk of having a job is the pay. With record breaking high gas prices, that paycheck at the end of the week can make or break a gas tank.  Also with college sneaking up on some seniors, saving money for tuition is extremely important. Now is the time to experience a high school job.
