accomplishment into their future Wednesday.

HHS Principal Bill Hoglund gave the congratulatory address to the 20 inductees in socially-

Hoglund used the COVID-19 pandemic to encourage the students to establish themselves as

“Find your place, find your passion, find your purpose,” he said.

Scholarship; Kristina King, Service; Ke’Ara Key, Leadership; and Ashanti Phillips, Character.
