year at hpiam


                     My 3rd year here in hpiam is great because this is my senior year. These three years have been probably the best in my life so far because everyone at this school is great . but some of the teachers aren’t  not mentioning any names. The bst thing about this school is that they have a football team and I was one of all the players to be first on the team. It’s an honor to be the first team to ever play for this school.
