Life at HUHS- Andy Childs

As the year continues to progress, seniors, like me, are beginning to hear back from a few of the colleges we have applied to. Recently, I personally heard back from Whitewater and am very happy to be accepted. Many of my friends have heard back from UW system schools as well, such as Platteville and UWM.

On another note, Student Council held its first blood drive! We hung up many signs around school and we signed up about 150 donors.  Remember… it can easily get you out of that one class you hate. I would guess that a large amount of our students give blood simply to cut class. I think the real motto for the blood drive should be “Save a life: skip class today.” Pretend you’re dizzy and get a free Coke! Though truthfully, it is a great cause and is crucial to save the lives of others – the most helpful way to avoid school.  At the end of the day, we collected 149 pints of blood in a short, five hour period. Our next blood drive will be January 21, 2015.


As time goes on through the year and students begin to regret taking difficult classes, I have recently found my enjoyment for art class increasing. All of my friends and family would suggest that I am not the type of person to enjoy an art class due to my lack of skill, but I think I’ve finally started to shine in art fundamentals with Mrs. Mohagen. I haven’t decided what I find more fun, creating things in class or coming up with different last names for our teacher. While we work, Noah Fleuchaus and I spend much of the class deciding other ways to use “hagen” in an interesting name combination. (Don’t worry we still work while talking) I believe the most popular example so far has been “Mrs. Brohagen”. Fortunately she is a good sport and only gives us unsatisfactory when we deserve it. (All of the projects)
