Principal's Message
Celebrate what you want to see more of.-Tom Peters
Dear Razorback Community,
It's the most wonderful time of the year! This week, we have the joy of celebrating the tireless efforts and commitment of both our esteemed staff and dedicated learners. Let's shine a spotlight on the talents that serve as a source of inspiration for our students and showcase their remarkable abilities in harnessing authentic learning opportunities.
As we eagerly approach the conclusion of the fall semester, we anticipate coming together with all members of the Razorback Community. The Hogg New Tech Family extends warm wishes for a joyous holiday season to everyone! We look forward to reuniting on January 9, 2024.
Proud Principal of Hogg New Tech,
Ms. Molina
