Hereford BULLetin

On Wednesday, we celebrated Administrative Professionals Day with our front office and school counseling secretaries. We have an awesome team who are always available to help our students, parents, and community members. They are the first smiling faces to greet you whenever you come visit, and are always here to pitch in for whatever is needed. We are grateful for all that they do for our school.

The next time you are in the building, be sure to wish Ms. Madigan, Ms. Bento Eckhart, Ms. Koehn, Ms. Fetrow-Keihl, Ms. Bennett, and/or Ms. Schene a Happy Belated Administrative Professionals Day

Congrats to Chloe Horney for being selected as a Student Ambassador to represent MD and District VI at the NFHS National Student Leadership Summit being held in Indianapolis in July! This is a very special opportunity where she will get to travel to the conference where student athletes get to grow their leadership skills and expand their horizons as they network with other student athletes from across the country.

The Baltimore County Police Department K9 Unit visited with our Agriculture Program classes this week. They did a great demonstration of the role of the K9 and how they can be a huge support for Police Officers. A big shoutout goes to Corporal Bondura, Officer Hubbard, Flash, and Minnow. Below are a few pictures from the event.

Last week, the Mile One Cares Drive Smart Distracted Driving Program came to HHS. The students in our PE and Health Classes got the opportunity to learn about safe driving from the Baltimore County Police Department and the folks from Mile One. It was a really fun experience for our students and staff.

Students in the Career & Technical Education (CTE) Department are presenting their coursework to Mr. Mikalauskas's Career Research & Development classes. Recently, Annabelle Donovan and Morgan Hall presented Marketing Careers to the classes. They also led the students through a "Shark Tank" like activity where students had to sell a product. A big shoutout goes to Annabelle and Morgan for the work they put in to be a teacher for the day!
