HECTOR of Week
Staff - Rebecca Pena. She comes to work prepared to have an impact on students. She always has a positive attitude. It's been a pleasure to work with her.
JH - Jerome Ethridge- He is always so coachable and makes people laugh. He is great in class.
HS - Gabe Tapia- always optimistic with others and in class. He is very coachable and Tolerant of his peers and always greets others. He is pure reason to be HECTOR.

Today's HS Baseball games @ DHPH (V,JV) (@ Runyon) are cancelled (forfeit) because DHPH does not have enough players. We will practice at 4:00.

Happy Birthday Ms. Goines! Have a great day........🎂

Athlete of the Week
Jackson O’Connor - Jackson has done a great job this year. He threw out 3 base runners against Custer County and hit well this week. He was voted as a Captain and his leadership is contagious. --
Girls Track: Analyce Wilson worked hard in practice this week and transferred that growth to the meet on Saturday in Limon. Analyce PRed in the 400 by 3 seconds. Great work!
Boys Track: Dayton Morlan PRed in the 200m Dash by .05 second and qualified for finals at the meet in Limon. He took third overall. Dayton was able to extend his stride and run closer to the ground to improve his time. He is shaping up to have a great meet when we can dodge the wind. Great work Dayton. Please come to the office to take your picture
