A Message From Our

BOARD PRESIDENT & SUPERINTENDENT Dear HUHS Parents and Community, We are embarking on the development of our next strategic plan for the future success of our students, the District, and its stakeholders. This is an exciting and critically important opportunity to connect our performance to our potential.

A strategic plan represents the things we must do to be successful in the future. We know there are many things we could do, should do, or may like to do, but our goal is not to produce a giant list. In fact, the challenge we face is quite the opposite: identify the 3 to 5 most critical things we must do, and then ensure we have every reasonable expectation of accomplishing them. It will require focus, discipline, and tenacity.

Our most recent iteration took place for the 2014-2016 school years. There were three primary focus areas, seventeen strategic objectives, fifty-five activities, and fifty-three performance measures. While we did accomplish some of what we set out to do, it was clear our ambition was greater than our capacity. We have learned.

Being successful will also require a diverse group of committed participants to help us through this process; people who can provide stewardship, perspective, commitment and advocacy for the District. Our Strategic Planning Team will have approximately 25 members, and it will be a diverse group, representing the community. While all are stakeholders in the District’s success, each will bring a slightly different perspective. This is a core strength of this Team’s design. We have invited members from the following stakeholder groups.

O

We will be working with a professional facilitator. Brett Remington has over 20 years of experience in building high-performing organizations. He has worked with other southeastern Wisconsin districts, and most recently helped the West Bend School District through their strategic planning process. He is President of Blue Rock WI and Executive Director for the Wisconsin Center for Performance Excellence.

A kick-off meeting for the Team is expected in late June, and our Strategic Plan Process is expected to take 5 to 6 months. We are excited about the Team recommending a direction to the Board for the District over the next 3 – 5 years. The process will also involve focus groups and surveys, and we sincerely ask that you participate so that your voice is heard.

Thank you for supporting our students and HUHS. We are better because of you.

Sincerely, Josh Schoemann, President Board of Education

RICHFIELD SCHOOL

Our Associate Fuel Up to Play 60

DISTRICTS

In 2013-2014, Plat Elementary School applied for and received the Fuel Up to Play 60 grant. Four years later, the program continues to thrive and expand. This May, Mr. Heinritz along with a team of teachers and parents built a Gaga Ball pit. What is Gaga Ball? It is a modified form of dodgeball that is believed to have originated in Israel. Since the construction, students, staff, and parents have enjoyed playing Gaga Ball during gym class, YCARE, Recess, weekends and evenings, and soon summer school!

National History Day

At Richfield Elementary School, one of the projects students look forward to is National History Day. This project is completed at each grade level, but this year, the sixth graders were featured in UW Oshkosh Today for becoming researchers at Polk Library. This year’s theme, “Taking a Stand in History,” invited students to research people who took risks that led to change. Through this university partnership, students were able to learn new skills, foster a love for research, and possess the ability to review and use resources. This year, twenty students qualified, or were alternates, for the state competition, and of these, one student qualified as an alternate for the national competition! (More photos can be found at: https://goo.gl/QDAVYe.)

Math Team

Our middle school students had the opportunity to participate in the HUHS Math Meet this winter. The sixth and seventh grade math teams took first and second, and second and third place, respectively.

Individually, five Richfield students placed in the top three for their grade level!

Cons o l ida t io n

At the district level, consolidation talks between Friess Lake and Richfield continue. In April, both school boards passed initial resolutions. While not binding, these resolutions kept the talks moving in the direction of a consolidation. The boards and administration of both districts have continued to listen to feedback. While some concerns have been expressed, the majority of the feedback we have received continues to be in favor of a consolidation. Each of the boards have designated a committee on consolidation to work with administration to build trust and rapport, as well as establish a draft resolution for the July board meetings. Two joint board meetings were held in June to continue this work. A final resolution to consolidate will be considered at the July Board Meetings. The Friess Lake Board will meet on July 17th, and the Richfield Board will meet on July 24th. We encourage the public to attend these meetings.

REASON WHY

Our focus for this newsletter is looking at our Class of 2017 graduates and checking out four different educational pathways to a career! Meet Mitchell, Kaitlin, Austin, and Anna all ready to hit the next educational adventure on their path to success. Congratulations to all of our graduates from the Class of 2017, we wish you all the best!

Mitchell Komp

United States Marine Corps Favorite Classes

TEE Courses: Welding &

Metal Fabrications Favorite Memory at HUHS The friendships, and being able to attend the graduation ceremony in my Dress Blue Uniform was also very cool and I appreciated the support of the audience when I received my diploma!

Future Plans [Mitchell graduated early from HUHS and completed his Boot Camp for the Marines during the Spring Semester.] I have been interested in the Military since I was young. I believe in this Country and what it stands for and I think it is worth defending and fighting for. That is why I chose Infantry for my MOS (Military Occupational Specialty).

“Mitch was a hardworking, courteous student. If something didn’t come easy, he would do the extra work to figure it out. I am confident he will be a great Marine and feel lucky to have such a fine man protecting our country.”

-Mr. Corey McCauley, TEE Teacher

Austin Brewer

Waukesha County Technical College

Kaitlin Twardokus

Fox Valley Technical College Favorite Clas

Dairy Science, I loved

having a class dedicated to my

intended career field.

Future Educational Plans I will be attending Fox Valley Technical College in the fall to get a technical diploma as an Agribusiness Dairy Technician.

Future Career Plans I completed my Youth Apprenticeship on my family farm, and being around on the farm for those extra hours allowed me to get much more involved in the day to day operations. I hope to become a Herd Manager for a dairy farm once I finish school.

“Katie is a perfect example of the idea that if you do a job you love, you’ll never work a day in your life. Cattle are definitely her passion and by working with the Co-Op and FFA program, she’s been able to continue to develop that passion and determine where she wants to focus her career.”

-Ms. Kim Schadrie FFA Advisor & Agri-Science Teacher

Anna Hermann

University of Wisconsin

Favorite Classes Band and Pre Calculus

Favorite Classes Choir, and APUSH (AP US History)

Activities Musical, Cross Country, Choir, District and State Solo & Ensemble Festival, National Honor Society, We the People Competition, French Exchange Program, Math Team, Math Club, Forensics, Softball, Track and Field, and H-Club

Favorite Memories at HUHS Going to Florida with the band, marching in the parade and the band concerts, being a part of the baseball and basketball programs, and all of the friends made along the way.

Future Plans Attending WCTC to become a Firefighter “Austin is one of the hardest working kids I know. He puts everythng he has into his school work, on the field, and leading the band as drum major. Yet, with all the accolades he has received, he is still very humble and thankful to all those who have helped him along the way. He is what Hartford is about.”

-Ms. Sheila Parker English Teacher & Student Council Advisor

Favorite Memories at HUHS Any moment I spent participating in the fall musical. I met so many friends there and loved every second of it.

Future Plans: Attending UW-Madison and majoring in Psychology with plans to become a Mental Health Counselor.

“If I had to describe Anna in one word, it would be caring. Anna cares to work hard to improve her music making. Anna cares to help others have great experiences in music.

Most of all, Anna cares about other people and has a great heart. She will be missed, but will always be a part of our choral family.”

HAPPENINGS

Focus on Connections

Focus on Connections is a personal finance simulation completed annually by our Junior students. Prior to the event each student registers for a career of interest and they make some decisions about how they see their life 10 years from now. During the event students simulate one-month of adult expenses based on the various life choices that they selected for their future selves. All students begin the event by opening a checking account and writing checks to pay their student loans and general debt payments. After that students visit a variety of stations where they make a number of spending decisions while also keeping their check book in balance.

The goal of the simulation is to emphasize the importance of sound money management and decision making skills. Connections provides students the opportunity to experience the financial “reality check” that adults face each month living within their means.

Furthermore, the event provides insight into career selection and how that career selection will play a part in a student’s financial future. Student conversations at the event revolved around financial decisions and future changes or aspirations. The event is only possible with the cooperation of our business, parent, and community member volunteers. Without these volunteers we could not hold the event and provide such an invaluable learning experience for our students. To show our appreciation, students in Mr. Rich Schmidt’s Culinary Arts 3 & 4 classes prepared lunch for our volunteers. The spread put out by our students was presented and prepared in a professional manner and had our volunteers very impressed.

Thank You to all Parent & Business Volunteers!

PARTNERS

Our community partners represent partnerships that are mutually supportive, and for which we are deeply grateful.

AURORA MEDICAL CENTER HUHS has partnered with Aurora Medical Center in Hartford for many years. All HUHS Employees begin their employment by completing a physical and TB Testing at Aurora. Members from many different areas of Aurora Medical Center have come to speak to our classes and have helped to carry out Mock Interviews for our Juniors. During our recent workforce tours for our Junior class, Aurora provided tours for over 100 students. Aurora also is a member of the Washington County Workforce Alliance with HUHS, and they come to HUHS for our annual College and Career Fair each year. This year, members of the Aurora Medical Center team presented workshops at our Fair for our students to learn more about all careers in Healthcare.

MJ’S MARKET AND CATERING MJ’S Market and Catering provides excellent food and catering service to Hartford Union High School. MJ’s acts as a regular sponsor for our Athletic programs and provides the meat for our concessions for both the Hartford Booster Club and our H-Club. MJ’s also provides food and catering services for all of our Athletic Banquets, team meals, and for our semi-formal Retirement and Recognition Luncheon. There have been a number of times where MJ’s Market and Catering was contacted at the last minute by one of our coaches or staff members, and they came through with their excellent food and service. MJ’s Market and Catering continues to go above and beyond to support HUHS and provides a great partnership.

UPTOWN CHEVROLET

Uptown Automotive in Slinger has worked with Hartford Union High School in a number of capacties throughout the years. Uptown most recently worked with three of our Youth Apprenticeship students to extend their classroom learning by providing them with an Automotive Service Technician position while earning credits at HUHS. Uptown has also provided our Automotive classes new cars for our Showcase event as well as for a recent Top Tech Challenge competition. The vehicles are used during class to show advances in new automobiles along with costs associated in owning a new vehicle. Uptown also participates in our College and Career Fair every year and has helped out with our Focus on Connections Event for our Juniors. HUHS and the Hartford community are fortunate to have support from Uptown. HUHS greatly appreciates the commitment from Uptown to support our students.

HARTFORD FIRE AND RESCUE

HUHS has partnered up with Hartford Fire and Rescue on a number of very important tasks. We are lucky to have their consistent presence at all of our home football games at Gib Mahr Field. Beyond that, the Hartford Fire and Rescue recently provided over 100 students in our Junior class tours and career talks about all of the different opportunities and participated in our College and Career Fair. They work closely with the athletic trainers to preplan for medical emergencies and to get to know each other’s scope of practice and expectations. They are often seen in our school for health career talks and emergency preparedness talks to Sports Med students.

The Hartford Fire and Rescue went above and beyond last Fall for our HUHS French Exchange program, when they hosted their send off event. Thank you Hartford Fire and Rescue for all that you do for HUHS!
