In Honor of country music star and literacy advocate Dolly Parton, Friday, August 28 is Dolly Day at HHS! Come dressed in your school-appropriate country music best: boots, denim, rhinestones, sequins, country-inspired outfits, or anything else that brings a little Dolly-style fun to the day.

We’re celebrating Dolly Parton’s incredible legacy, including her lifelong support of literacy, imagination, and education. So let’s have some fun, celebrate an American icon, and show our support for the power of reading!

WOW! Students in our Take the Lead mentoring program raised $6,000 in support of the Ronald McDonald House in downtown Charleston, which is TRIPLE the amount they donated last year. Kudos to all our mentees on this incredible achievement —especially those from Cane Bay High, who donated the most to this special cause.

The Hawks showed their strength, but in the end couldn't pin down West-Oak. Regardless of the outcome, they still made us and the Hanahan community proud this season. They finished the year as the Lower State Champions and State Runner-Up.
