To the Editor, Let me start by saying I am in favor of our school, but I am not in favor of this school project/referendum. A little background. My wife Kathy and I are both graduates of Henning High School as are our two sons, one graduating in 1996 and the other in 1999. They were in… Read More

To the Editor, I would like to take a few minutes of your time to express my feelings on the upcoming referendum vote. First off I would like to say that our entire family is HHS graduates.

 To the editor, Large efforts have been made to achieve two school referendum plans and the marketing has been top notch but a number of legitimate questions/concerns have been raised and remain unanswered to the best of my knowledge.  The heating system is overdue for an upgrade and should be addressed as a priority.  One has… Read More
