Chemistry 1 students Kylee Anderson, Olivia Burkholz and Andrea O'Bryon have won an award from University of WI - Madison Department of Chemistry. During March and April, Chemistry 1 students were growing crystals in lab. Some crystals were voted on and sent in to the "WI Crystal Growing Contest" through UW-Madison Dept. of Chemistry. There were over 21 High Schools with about 610 participants statewide. Our HUHS student group won top score in the category of "Aesthetic Value". They will be attending the awards ceremony in Madison
this Friday.
The picture in the beaker is their crystal at the very start of the experiment, and the picture in the ziploc bag is the crystal at the end of the project.
These crystals are grown from copper II sulfate.

Health Minute - Important Information from the Health Room
|
Parents, please mind your student(s) that they always need to come to the Health Room with any health concerns and to not call or text home. The Health Technician will always call the parent or emergency contact to arrange for the student to leave school when ill. If a student talks or texts their parent on their own cell phone and then they leave school without contacting a staff member and receiving a permit to leave, they are considered truant from school.
Reminder that each new school year requires a new Individualized Healthcare Plan for students who have health issues and for students who need Epi-Pens, inhalers, etc. Students can carry inhalers, but must have this signed form on file with the Health Office. These forms can be found on
huhs.org, use the Services Tab, scroll to Health Services. The appropriate forms are located on the right side of the page. Any prescribed medications will need a parent and doctor's signature. Students can carry over-the-counter medications with parental approval if it is in the original bottle, with a signed note from the parent. The Health Office page also offers tips and guidelines for procedures in the Health Office to keep your child safe at school.

Boys Baseball News - Orioles' 2-1 victory against Kettle Moraine Lutheran
|
HARTFORD - Zach Braun paused for perhaps half a second.
The Hartford Union sophomore catcher was asked which play meant moreMonday - his sixth-inning sacrifice fly or seventh-inning spear of a Kettle Moraine sacrifice bunt that was fouled back behind home plate.
"Probably getting the sac fly," he grinned, "but the bunt was a big play, too."
Braun's sacrifice fly scored Brody Marks for a one-run Orioles lead, and
his snag of Kettle Moraine Lutheran's Kaleb Baker's sacrifice bunt in the seventh inning led to a 2-1 victory for the Orioles.
