Weekend hoops for Houston Lady Tiger Basketball 🐯🏀 in the third-place game of the Lady Lions Invitational

A senior forward for the Lady Tigers basketball team, Olivia has started every game this season and leads the team in scoring and rebounding. She is also the reigning Female Athlete of the Year at HHS as a three-sport athlete. Congratulations Olivia!
Our senior class recently completed surveys sharing their post-graduation goals and where they are in the process with campus visits, completing the FAFSA and other milestones. A drawing was held for all the submissions, and seniors Andy Durham and Harold Lassiter won $25 gift cards.

The drawing was through the rootEd initiative, which places advisers like McNiell in rural high schools to assist students with their post-secondary plans. Our district is was of 153 in the state selected for the program.
