Around the Classroom

After our end of the year field trip to the LA County Fairgrounds Farm, I decided to add a  class that would involve agriculture. This summer I added dutch bucket hydroponics system, along with a Kratky float system. Then planted some tomatoes, strawberries, cucumbers & lettuce to get the ball rolling..











More New Summer Work at HHS







Additional Summer Work included adding irrigation to extend the grass field an extra 10 yards to allow us to have home football games. We also made the volleyball poles removable and added benches next to the volleyball court. And then we are having the parking lot resurfaced and lined! Wait there is more.... The storage bin in the back will be getting painted to match the school!

What's New @ HHS

Over the summer this past summer HHS got a face lift, literally.  Hillside plywood skin was removed from most of the school and replaced with new plywood. The school was then painted.












We also had two students from Cal Poly Pomona along with Upland  USD maintenance personnel create a new garden for the school. The garden is 20 ft x140 ft. The garden was planted with pumpkins on July 26th. The pumpkins were started by both the CPP students and Mr. Connor. The plants will be growing over the next 110 days and should be ready for Halloween.
