Samples of HHS student work:
The Junior class research papers are a cooperative project of the English and History Departments. For details see http://www.harwich.edu/depts/history/paper.html. Special credit for the extensive efforts of Mr. O'Leary, Mrs. Hammatt, Ms Whittemore, Mrs. Leete, Ms Martell-Paschal, Mrs. LaVangie, Mr. Birchfield, Mr. Bates, Mr. McIntyre and Mr. Houston. As with every year the Library Staff (Mrs. Whittemore, Mrs. Mills, Mr. Goldstein, Ms Tyldesley, and Ms Rodgers) was invaluable. Thank you to the Staff of the Brooks Free Library for hosting our visits and helping with research at our wonderful town library. The students whose work is presented here have gone above and beyond the class expectations.
