Hilliard Schools and CancerBridge will be hosting James Cotton Today, Monday November 22, and Tuesday, November 23, to educate our students on tobacco-free living, and the dangers of vaping. In recognition of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, Cotton will have an encouraging conversation about keeping your health a top priority with nearly 5,100 Hilliard City School students, focusing on health as a top priority. Cotton will be discussing healthy behaviors that lead to better outcomes and brighter futures. He will share with all 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th-grade students the importance of a tobacco-free lifestyle by illustrating the short and long-term effects of tobacco use and vaping!
The Hub’s Mrs. Schaeffer had a local artist, Adam Hernandez, guide her students through their project of designing handmade postcards. The students created their own designs, using the block printing technique, which were stamped onto their postcards. The postcards will be used to create a pen pal experience as well as be sent to local community members as a way to advocate, ask questions and create connections. This project is being funded through a grant from the Hilliard Education Foundation.
Not just your average gaming device. The Warp Zone is an arcade that holds a showcase of student-made coding games and projects at Hilliard Davidson High School. Students have the opportunity to show off their work to the school when their project hits the Warp Zone in the commons that anyone can play. The students managing the project this year are Brady Whiteside and Mia Martinez. They will help guide students that want to manage the project next year.
