🏴☠️️When the student becomes the teacher. Being able to teach to someone else is a great benchmark for assessing mastery. Coach Nicholas's weight lifting class was able to take the information they learned throughout the semester and teach their techniques to 6th grade Health students. 6th grade students have been learning about muscles, stretching, and workout routines in their class. It was a win-win for both classes.
We need your help!!! Share a positive message with someone *CURRENT HPS STAFF* who has made a positive impact in your child's life this school year!
The Sports Broadcasting Class at HHS is working on a special project to recognize HPS educators.
