5k Trail Run at Holly Hill Farm

Please support our longtime allies, Holly Hill Farm, an amazing organic farm in Cohasset. These are the good people who helped to get our compost and gardening programs off the ground here at HHS. Come out to run they annual "Discover the Woods" 5K trail race at 10AM on Saturday, October 1st. It's always a blast!

Green Apple Day of Service

Saturday 9/24/16, 9-10:30 AM
Meet behind the cafeteria to help sift compost and work in the school garden!


Slash The Trash
HHS composts all organic waste from the cafeteria.  Students help care for the compost bins.  We have used this compost to create a school garden and we have sold it at the local farmers' market.  With the help of various sports teams and clubs, HHS has increased its composting and recycling activity at lunch.  The groups compete to see who can promote the most participation in composting and recycling.  Points are deducted for every recyclable item found in the trash.  The group with the least points wins a catered lunch donated by the generous Crow Point Pizzeria.  Below are schedules for each season.
