At the School Awards, Students of the Year were presented.

The first presentation of Student of the year was presented by Principal Angelika Brown to a student who is “motivated, polite, participates in sports, Student Council and all school activities. This student has shown leadership qualities and has helped organize different events for our school and her tribe. She has hosted exchange students and participated in international travel. She has great common sense and is very intelligent and cultured. We are all proud of her and proud of the fact that she got in Stanford and just represented us all at the White House in Washington DC. The first Student of the Year is Sinead Talley.”

The next introduction was made by Denise Bearding as follows: “When thinking of a student of the year, we look for those who are outstanding in certain areas. This particular student is outstanding in many areas. Some of which have not been recognized before. This student has appeared in front of a variety of audiences and crowds many times over the years and has always been gracious and self—effacing about his accomplishments. Many people may not know about a side which is not quite so obvious. In the area of fine arts, he is focused and creative and has a fine sense of quality and detail that shows in his drawings and other art work. He is thoughtful about what he produces and holds his work to a high level of excellence. In his writing, he is not afraid to put his heart on his sleeve letting emotions and thoughts come to the surface, He has never shirked from tackling a weird writing assignment and is always willing to challenge himself academically. His elementary school teacher remembers him, as I think many of us will today, easy going, friendly, and pleasant and liked by all. He quietly and determinedly focused on his school work, followed school rules, was respectful of his peers and adults and always had a smile to share. This student is looked up to by his colleagues and younger children. For good reason, he is a leader in the classroom, on the court, and on the field; an outstanding athlete and scholar and exemplary representative of the school and the tribe. It is with admiration and pride that we offer this prestigious award to Charley Reed for Student of the Year.”

The High School grounds look fabulous this year at the end of school! Mrs. Bearding looks on as students plant flowers around the school to improve the view!

For the past few years, the school has been through repeated remodel and repair. This is the first time it has been back to “normal” and with Mr. Eadie trimming the grass and the students planting flowers, it is really looking good!! Here are some of the students, Christian Robinson, Emily Parry, Ciera Silva, Bailey helping improve the loos of the school.

Thanks to all who contributed to the improved look of Happy Camp High School!

The exciting climax of the Happy Camp High School Homecoming week was three basketball games with Butte Valley Friday evening. It really looked like the boys would catch up when they got within 4 points but Butte Valley pulled ahead. They were good games and the kids did a great job. The parents were busy manning the hamburger stand serving food to hoards of hungry spectators.
Then came the crowning of the Homecoming royalty! Last years royalty, Florence Peters and Ronnie Reed crowned the King and Queen.
Stephanie Murphy was the Princess for the Freshman class. Stephanie’s escort was Justin West. Stephanie loves to hang out with her family and friends and go swimming. Stephanie would like to see a music store in Happy Camp and a music class added to HCHS classes. The freshman class prince, Zachary Walter was escorted by Carly Hammon. Zach likes football and basketball but his favorite sport is wrestling and he likes to go mining with his dad. Zach would like to see wrestling added to classes at Happy Camp High. He’d also like to see a movie theater in Happy Camp.
Sophomore Princess was Melissa Bragg, who was escorted by her brother, Will. She would like to open a Mall in Happy Camp and see culinary arts added to the high school curriculum. Alexander Eadie was the Sophomore Prince. Alex walked with his sister Abbey. Alex’s hobbies are playing music, hunting fishing and anything outdoors. He likes to play basketball because it is intense and energizing. He participates in sports, 4-H and church. His positive attitude is his best character trait. Alex would like to see a better sports program and music at HCHS and see a YMCA in Happy Camp. He would like to become an Air Force pilot after high school.
Junior Princess was Bridget Koons escorted by Corey Barnett. One of Bridget’s hobbies is cosmetology and she’d like to open a beauty salon in Happy Camp. At one time Happy Camp had three beauty shops in town and now we have none. Bridget likes to play volleyball and softball and participates in the executive student council. She would like to see a home economics class at Happy Camp High. Junior Prince, Kirstopher Nelson’s escort was his girlfriend, Shelley Hoskinson. Kris likes basketball, track and field and taking college classes while attending high school. He has a great work ethic and plans to go to medical school. His favorite high school memory is all three basketball seasons. He would like to see more Basketball games and weight training class.
The Senior Princess, Victoria Jones was crowned Homecoming Queen. Victoria’s escort was Joel who will be the lead in the new Drama Class production Anatomy of Gray soon. Victoria has been Student Body President for two years and likes to play volleyball, basketball and softball. A word that best describes Victoria is Serendipitous! After high school Victoria is planning to attend University and use her education to save the world. Her favorite movie is Lord of the rings. Victoria would like to see a pawn shop in Happy Camp and Mandarin Chinese taught at the high school by Jackie Chan and a defensive arts class. Victoria said she is inspired by her mom because she is strong, intelligent, crazy and a unique amazing person. She is the most selfless and caring woman Victoria has ever met.
Senior Prince, Justin Wright, was crowned Homecoming King. Justin was escorted by Sinead Talley. Justin loves to be active in sports and play video games in his free time. He participates in all the sports that HCHS has to offer and likes basketball but his favorite sport is Football. He is planning to go to community college after high school and play football. Justin is most inspired by his mom because she always says inspiring things to motivate him. He would like to see a sports shop in Happy Camp and a home economics class at the high school.
Happy Camp has the English, Math, Science and Social Studies classes and electives like art and drama, but the best is the Karuk Language and Culture Class. It would be wonderful if the students could have it every day a week. Learning language is hard one day a week but the students help each other learn. When you learn a person’s language you learn so much about them because you see what they value and think about. It is really a most interesting class!

Last week was full of basketball at Happy Camp High School and now Homecoming is coming up! That means lots of fun for the kids, and a busy time for us all. Last week besides the games, there was a basketball clinic put on for improving their skills.

The Sophomores who will be voted on for Homecoming are Alex Eadie and Melissa Bragg and Tuesday will be Beach Party Day.
