New Computer StationsThese new computer stations were added to the Menelik Lab across from the existing ones. With the loss of the two corner stations it is only a net gain of one, but the increase of space and ease of supervision makes the change seem much greater. |

New York Police Department pays a visit to Haile High.Andrew Quinn (center), a trainer of seeing-eye dogs for the blind, and for the handicapped, paid a visit. His insights were of great interest to our students who eagerly digest any information regarding aid to the handicapped. Mr Quinn has been working with dogs for over 40 years and finds it a very rewarding occupation. His message was "be kind to animals because they are kind to us." Thanks Andy! Your visit is a good example of how Haile High welcomes anyone with knowledge that our students would never receive elsewhere. |

Haile High’s talented geek, Todd McFarlin, graduated from Acton Boxborough Regional High School on June 3 rd. 375 students participated in the evening ceremony. Todd will attend Newbury College in the fall studying… what else? - computers! The program title is Computer Hardware Science. By the way, the difference between a nerd and a geek is that the geek gets it done. And Todd certainly does. Congratulations, Todd. |
