A Special Treat for Our Howe HS Faculty & Staff! A big thank you to Alisha Plummer and the STS Foundation Student Exchange program for treating our staff to a delicious lunch from Si Señor Restaurant today! We are so grateful for this partnership and the opportunity it brings to our school. Through the years, we’ve had the privilege of learning alongside students from around the world, celebrating cultures, building connections, and creating lifelong memories. A special shoutout to Alisha, who has personally hosted exchange students for 9 years, welcoming 9 students into her home from 8 different countries. What an incredible impact! This year, we are proud to have: 🇧🇷 Bozza Bittencourt, Brazil — Host Family: Chris & Brandie Lovell 🇦🇹 Florian Stiebellehner, Austria 🇳🇱 Esmee Doek, The Netherlands — Host Family: Matthew & Alisha Plummer Howe has proudly welcomed 30+ students through STS over the years—each one becoming part of the Lion family. Once you’re a Lion, you’re always a Lion. 🦁

The Howe Lady Lions season came to an end today after a hard-fought battle against #1 Dale in the semifinals of the 4A Slowpitch State Tournament. While this isn’t the ending we hoped for, we could not be more proud of this group of girls and the fight, heart, and determination they showed all season long. ❤️🥎🖤 Thank you to our parents, students, staff, community, and fans for the incredible support throughout the season and during our state tournament run. Your support never went unnoticed, and we are proud to represent Howe every time we take the field. Thank you, Lady Lion family, for an unforgettable season. #KappaHowe #LadyLions #ProudToBeALion
