Myspace Pages


by Luz D.

MySpace is not a bad website. You can use MySpace for many things. Some if those things are:
1. chat with friends
2. Meet nice people
3. Chatting with friends
4. And many more.....
MySpace can also be dangerous if you use it in ways you are not supposed to. Some dangerous uses would be:
1. Giving your address to people you do not know.
2. Giving your phone number to people you do not know.
3. Giving personal information AT ALL to people you don't know (including your real name, school name, family information, age, etc.)
4. And many more.....

Tragedy in Haiti


By David G.

On the morning of January 12, a devastating earthquake hit Haiti, leaving many victims injured or dead. So far, over 150,000 bodies have been identified, and the final death toll is predicted to be 200,000 or more. Officials say there are still bodies they have not identified. Aid workers from around the world have been in desperate need of food, water, and medical supplies. The aid workers also claim that if supplies are not quickly delivered, there will be security problems, as victims' patience is wearing thin. U.N. Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has appealed for $550 million to meet victims' needs. To help, Coinstar, Inc. has over 15,000 locations where you can donate coins to help victims of the Haitian earthquake. If half of the U.S. population donated $1, it would raise more than $150 million to help. You can also donate at www.unicefusa.org/haitiquake, where the transaction will only take 48 hours.

HMS vs. Euless

Who do you think will win the girls' basketball game against Euless and why?

Yes (I think we will the the game) because 7th grade "A" volleyball team beat them, so I'm confident to win against Euless. GO HALTOM TIGERS!!!!
Dayane 7th grade

(I think) maybe(we will win the game) because we don't know how good they are. We did beat the "A" and "B" team, but they seem to be better at basketball than volleyball.
Cessily 7th grade

Its a big possibility, but we are good on both "A" and "B" teams. Still we don't know how good Euless is and if we can best them. I support Haltom, Go Lady Tigers!!!
