🎨🌍 HHS alumni and current Mizzou student Michael Hark visited our French 4/5 class today to share his amazing experiences from a study abroad trip to Germany and France with his business class this past winter.
Students have also been busy recreating a beautiful Claude Monet water lilies painting, inspired by their recent lessons on impressionist art. This creative project was made possible thanks to a mini grant from HCTA!

✨ New Class Spotlight ✨ African American literature, led by the amazing Christine Poage, is making waves at Hannibal High School. Earlier this year, 15 students embarked on a special project, becoming authors and illustrators of thought-provoking books. 📚✨
Their stories, filled with vivid imagery, were shared with younger Pirates at Eugene Field Elementary. Through these tales, students delved into the struggles and triumphs of African American slaves in pursuit of freedom, sparking curiosity and inspiring questions. It was an unforgettable experience for all involved.
Mrs. Poage shared, "We talk about art and music and literature and poetry and all these different forms, and we tie it together. We’ve learned about diversity, and we have learned about people — different people who have different experiences,” she said. “I think sometimes differences can scare people, so we want to break those boundaries. We want every single race, nationality, creed, color and religion to feel valued and impactful and to know their voice matters.🌟 🏴☠️
