by Chelsea Gagnon The 2011 Metrowest Adolescent Health Survey reports that 40% of HHS students have had sex, yet 53% of students don’t use condoms at our school. These numbers are troubling. In a survey of 150 students taken this year, 23 students reported that they were sexually active and do not use condoms, while 28 [...]
by Alicia Ptak For a school with twenty-three sports teams, twelve clubs, and a large drama department, Hudson High seems to severely lack school spirit. Only a select few sports actually have supporters come to games. The drama department, who work hard on numerous productions every school year, usually have families as their audience, rather than [...]
by Adam Colbert Even as a diehard Patriots fan, I am not a big fan of the rule that won us our first Super Bowl. This rule should be abolished from the game, and no team should get the debatable call that could affect the game’s outcome. It was becoming too hard to tell when the rule should apply, the rule [...]
by Aimee Farquharson In America, only nine out of the fifty states support and recognize gay marriage. On the national level, the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) defines marriage between only one man and one woman. This is discriminatory and homophobic. Gay marriage should be legalized nationally, and within all fifty states. Some religions would [...]
by Aimee Farquharson Gun control should be much stricter in America, possibly to the point of no civilian gun ownership except for those with occupations who use guns. Because this is a very extreme view, I would propose a more realistic gun control law that would call for more mental health checks and better access [...]
by Adam Aucoin The intensity of the puck being dropped at center ice. The sound of players being crunched against the boards. The relief the crowd feels when the goalie makes a great save. The elation that flowing through the crowd when the horn sounds for a goal. The exhilaration felt when the announcer says, [...]
by Cassy Moran When most students think Friday nights, they probably think of going to the football game. Yet, at this time there may be five or six other games going on, volleyball, soccer, field hockey or even a cross country meet. Why is it that football has hundreds of fans, and field hockey has few, if any, students [...]
by Erin Farquharson Last year in Hudson High, the school Wi-Fi was blocked to all students without the password, but this year it is open to anyone. The bad news is that many sources are blocked by a sonic wall. This poses a disadvantage to student learning in the classroom. Administration blocks websites like Facebook [...]
by Braden Rendano On November 6, citizens voted for the next president of the United States. However, how did the voters get a good opinion of the candidates when Obama and Romney are lying about facts and attacking each other? Candidates do not always present the truth, which makes it hard to make a [...]
by Madison Peck The amount of paper our students and staff use is horrendous. The copy center can use 5+ boxes, which contain 5000 sheets of paper, a day. While the HHS copy center does fill orders for all the schools in Hudson, only 30% of the orders come from outside the high school. Out [...]
