This year’s trip will be to Boston. We were last in Boston in 2014. Check out the trip video composed by then-student Kousa Yamaoka here.
Please attend if you are interested in the trip this school year. There will be information for students and interested chaperones. This has been announced in classes.
Marching Band Pictures - Wed, Oct. 11th:
The HHSMB will be having it's picture taken on Wednesday, October 11th right after school.
Students can request to have their individual picture taken at this time too - but they must ask to be photographed individually because he isn't taking every individual student's photo (only those who are wanting them done).

Dress Code: "Dress nicely". This means NO TSHIRTS, SWEATSHIRTS/PANTS, JEANS, OR TENNIS SHOES. Obviously this also means that all clothing needs to be school appropriate as well. Gentlemen - a nice shirt and tie with slacks or khakis will do. Ladies - a nice blouse or sweater with a skirt or slacks put you in the clear. You will be changing into your uniform during the concert after you perform if you are in marching band, so bring your marching uniform (the season's black, fitness / pj shorts, all black socks and all black shoes).
