New Hampton High School will once again be hosting grade-level parent meetings the first night of Parent/Teacher Conferences, on March 11. We will be doing Sophomore and Junior meetings this time, as we did Freshman and Senior meetings in the Fall. The Sophomore parent meeting will be at 6:00 p.m. and the Junior meeting will be at 6:30 p.m. These are not mandatory, but will include some good information on what your child should be doing now, things for their upcoming school year, etc. If you have attended in the past, the information will be very similar, but you are welcome to attend again if you'd like a refresher. Meetings will be held in the FCS room (the old HS cafeteria) on the upper level of the high school.
7th graders enjoyed making pancakes with their amazing sub, Jill Glenn. "Thank you for taking pictures during their food labs," said Mrs. Schmitt.
Cooking Around the World Class made homemade pasta to use in a pasta dish after covering the country of Italy. They did an excellent job! We listened to Italian opera music; which the students didn't care for.
Foods II Classes covered their fruit unit and did a little tasting of some tropical and exotic fruit. The students learned how to cut open a coconut, pineapple, and dragonfruit. The students enjoyed tasting the fruit and learned that cutting your own fresh fruit saves you money and tastes better.
Thank you to everyone in the community who ordered strawberries and made our fundraiser a huge success. Last year we ordered 224 flats and this year we ordered 271 flats. The profits will go towards the FCS and FCCLA departments. The strawberries were delicious! Mrs. Schmitt made fresh strawberry pie and froze them to make strawberry jam!

Braelyn Rosonke was recently awarded a Hagan Scholarship to attend Cornell College this Fall. The Hagan Scholarship is a nationwide need-based merit scholarship designed to help students graduate college debt-free. The scholarship provides up to $7,500 each semester for up to eight consecutive semesters and provides recipients with a practical understanding of important life skills not typically covered in the school curriculum via free Workshops, Schwab Brokerage Accounts and Study Abroad opportunities. Hagan Scholars have attended 638 colleges and universities located in 49 states and the District of Columbia. This is a very rare occurrence, so we felt extra recognition was warranted. Congratulations Braelyn!!
