Congratulations to Chris & Soraya McKinney, who gave birth to a son this past weekend! Chris sent the following note:
“Palmer
Lake McKinney was born Saturday morning around two thirty. Soraya is now at home
and doing fine. The baby will have to stay at the hospital in intensive care
until Saturday; he has a spot of pneumonia and will be treated with antibiotics all week.
He is eating good, which is a good sign. He was a little on the small
side--his birth weight was 5 lbs. 11 oz. and he now weighs approximately 5 lbs. 5 oz.”

1/8/09 Dr. James Swisher, our HHS principal
during freshman and sophomore years, passed away on New Year's Day at the age of 69. Read his obituary by clicking on
the thumbnail at left. The scarcity of yearbook photos of him confirms that he preferred to work behind the scenes, but
his direction molded Heritage High School from the very beginning--more so than we knew at the time.
