🌍 Pirates around the world! 🏴☠️
US Army Lt. John Maune, HHS Class of 2019, recently arrived in Poland and was greeted with, "Lieutenant Maune? I know your dad!" The twist? His new boss is another Hannibal Pirate—CPT Ian McKenzie, HHS Class of 2010.
We’re incredibly proud of both John and Ian, and we thank them for their service to our country. Go Pirates, Go Army!

🚧 Hands-On Learning with Mr. Greening's Class 🚧
Today students in Mr. Greening's class got some hands-on experience with mini-excavator training! They faced the challenge of carefully removing a basketball from a PVC pipe without knocking it down and then placing it in a trash can.
This activity required precision, patience, and thoughtful stick movements. Great job, all! 🖤❤🏴☠️
