STUDENTS: College bound seniors must apply to CSU’s & UC’s during October and November. During these months, we will proudly announce some of Hilltop’s finest college graduates! Today’s “Staff Spotlight” is Ms. Huls. Ms. Huls attended San Diego State University and majored in Art. In order to be successful in college, Ms. Huls advises students to get grounded, have a good self awareness, take it seriously otherwise it is money down the drain, and be sure you need the class that you sign up for. Her most memorable experience from college was when she made a plaster mold of her body and created a paper body with raffia weave. (Di Stefano)
BEGINNING AND ADVANCED ART STUDENTS: Have a beautiful “Dias de los Muertos” (The days of the Dead) display in Room 802, celebrating the Mexican Holiday which occurred November 1st, and 2nd.
