Instead of "First we mine, then we craft," at HHES it's "First we grow, then we show what we know." Earlier this week, the school released a humorous SBA promotional video spoofing video games and "A Minecraft Movie." The video, which was written, directed, and produced by Associate Principal Michael Olson, was a school-wide effort. HHES Leadership students came up with the video game theme and Olson and staff took it from there! While this video may not result in any invitations from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, we are pretty certain it will motivate students in Grades 3, 4 and 5 to "level up" on the SBA this month!
