HCSS High School

Last week, the HCSS Counseling department held its annual career speaker day!

This year, we had speakers from professions including engineers, educators, medical professionals, therapists, an astrophysicist, financial and business professionals, and many more. Many of our speakers this year were proud HCSS alumni going all the way back to our first-ever graduating class!

It was a great day and a great experience for everyone. We are looking forward to next year's event already!

Springfield, Mass Civic Showcase!

Several of HCSS High students were nominated by their Social Studies teachers to participate in DESE's Springfield, Mass Civic Showcase that was held on Wednesday, May 26th at the MassMutual Center. The selected group of students presented their Civics projects to a number of community advisors including the Department of Education Commissioner, Pedro Martinez. In doing so, students were given the opportunity to present and celebrate their civic projects, engage in meaningful dialogue about their work, emphasizing process over product to the local community. We’re so proud of their dedication and how they used their voices to drive change.

We also made it to the local news! Here is the link: https://www.wwlp.com/news/local-news/students-showcase-civic-engagement-at-massmutual-center-event/
