Focus On Connection Events
|
Focus on Connections was a huge success! Juniors experienced a simulated month of figuring out living expenses. Some had money left over at the end of the month while others needed the advice of credit counseling to help make decisions. Many thanks to the community business volunteers, parent volunteers, staff, food service and students for making this event a great experience! Thanks to the custodial staff for their help and a special thanks to the Culinary Classes for impressing the volunteers with their amazing lunch!

Ms. Bloomer and Mrs. Roselle's Special Arts class with the help of Mrs. Hoffmann and Mrs. Lulich learned the art of paper quilling. The students worked in groups to create some beautiful art. They decided they would like to gift their projects to some hard working people on HUHS staff, who they thought would enjoy having the art. One of the pieces will hang in Mrs. Roselle's classroom for the students to enjoy.

Health Minute
|
About 1 of 3 US adults have high blood pressure. High blood pressure makes your heart work too hard and increases your risk of heart disease and stroke. You can have high blood pressure and not know it. That is why it is called the silent killer.
If you have high blood pressure, there are steps you can take to get it under control.
- Ask your doctor what your blood pressure should be. Set a goal to lower your pressure with your doctor to make sure you meet that goal.
- Take your blood pressure medication as directed. If you are having trouble, ask your doctor what you can do to make it easier.
- Quit smoking-and if you don't smoke, don't start. You can find tips and resources at CDC's Smoking and Tobacco Web site or Be Tobacco Free Web site.
- Reduce sodium. Most Americans consume too much sodium, and it raises blood pressure in most people. Learn tips to reduce your sodium. You can read more about high blood pressure on the CDC's web site: http://www.cdc.gov/Features/HighBloodPressure/

Girls Soccer beat Slinger 4-0
|
Hartford Union used a little of both in several ways to break .500 in the Wisconsin Little Ten conference with
Tuesday's 4-0 victory against Slinger.
The Orioles (8-2-3, 2-1-0) played the aggressor for most of the 90-minute contest, allowing the Owls (2-4-3, 0-1-2) just a handful of chances to push into the Orioles' goalbox through the contest. The host peppered 12 shots on goal, connecting off two set pieces and a pair of footraces, and scored three times in the second half.
"That was great," Hartford coach Kevin Martin said. "That's what I want to see out of my girls, to catch the other team off guard and take advantage of that."
