Toys-4-Tots ~ H-Club & FFA
|
Throughout the week, H-Club members held a competition for 1st hour classes to collect various toys and cash to donate to the Hartford Christmas Committee drive. All toys and money stay local! Today, students and advisers, Mr. Vanden Acker and Ms. Schadrie, from H-Club and FFA visited the various local schools that helped out in the collection, delivered and organized the donations at the Town Hall, and shopped for many local families. This tradition has taken place for many years and it is one that our students really enjoy, especially because they know it is staying close to home.

Save the Date: Financial Aid Night
Financial Aid is provided for by the federal government, the State of Wisconsin, outside scholarship sources, and the college/universities themselves. Most aid is based on financial need and is designed to help meet the difference between the cost of college and the student and family's ability to pay for the education.
HUHS will be hosting a presentation for college-bound students and their parents to learn about grants, loans, student employment, and scholarships on
Wednesday, December 16, at 6:30pm in the Cafeteria. A speaker from Great Lakes Higher Education will be here to discuss the process of how families finance college costs through all the available options. Senior students and parents should plan to attend!
|
Junior Parent/Student Night
All junior students and their parents are encouraged to attend the Junior Parent Night on Wednesday, January 6, 2016, at 6:30pm in the Field house. The presentation will cover course registration details, assessment dates, college and career readiness plans, and information pertinent to junior students. A panel of HUHS graduates who are freshmen in college or technical college will be there to talk about their senior year and how they prepared for college and scholarship applications. They will also talk about their experience as college students now that they've completed their first semester and what the transition was like from high school student to college freshman.

ACT Testing
All students considering a two or four-year college experience are reminded to take the ACT test during their junior year. Students can register for the ACT at
www.actstudent.org . When registering, students will need the HUHS school code, which is 500-850. Please remember to check the website to see if the college(s) your son or daughter is considering requires or recommends the ACT writing test. The test fee for the ACT is $39.50 and the ACT with writing is $56.50. If you feel you cannot afford the test fee, please ask your child's counselor if you are eligible for a fee waiver.
HUHS is an ACT test center for all testing dates. The test dates for the 2015-2016 school year are:
February 6, 2016 April 9, 2016 June 11, 2016
Note: Please keep in mind all juniors are required by state law to take the ACT at the high school on March 1 (no cost to the student on March 1). When considering whether or not to take the February or April ACT, it may be best for students to take the March 1 test, then decide whether or not to retake the test in June based upon March results.
