Blasting Off Into Another Year

by Brad Olson on August 14, 2012

As we are all aware the fair has came and went and with that we are all getting ready to start another exiting year here at HHS. With the changes that have happened around the school the first couple of weeks should be an adventure. New for me this year is the change in classes that I will be teaching. Unfortunately I don't have any physics students but instead I will have the pleasure of teaching the 7th grade Integrated 1 students as well as 9th grade Integrated 3 students. This opportunity should be a lot of fun for both the students and I.

On a side note the is also a variety of interesting things happening in our night sky. The meteor shower last weekend was very showy and provided a nice back drop for viewing the space station that is crossing our night sky. For those that are interested I placed a viewing table below for both the station and the shuttle.
