Dear HUHS Choir Families,
Every year the Holiday Spirit comes to each one of us at different times. For musicians, the Holidays are a busy time of music making and spreading cheer, so it is easy to get so caught up in spreading the cheer, we forget to take time to receive any.
This year has been particularly difficult for everyone and that needs no explanation. But thanks to the young choral musicians here at HUHS the Holiday Spirit has arrived. It set upon us Wednesday, December 16th at about 2:30 PM in the Small Gym, where the HUHS Choirs sang together for the first time this school year, songs we would usually sing together at a Holiday concert. Afterwards we were all quiet and moved by what we had just experienced. These are the moments we live for as musicians.
We teach these musicians that beautiful music can only come from beautiful people. It is a reflection of their hearts and souls. Well, there was a lot of beautiful music making in that small gym, and those students shared their hearts with us. So, we thought we should share their beautiful music with all of you too.
We hope this recording cheers your hearts, calms your spirits, and brings you joy throughout the Holidays.
Take care,
Two grateful conductors, Mrs. Schuhmacher and Mr. Brusubardis
PS - We are grateful to Tia Burns who took the time to film and edit the video.

THE HARTFORD POLICE DEPARTMENT REQUESTS COMMUNITY SUPPORT! VOTE AND SHARE NOW!!
Recently, the Hartford Police Department was notified that it was one of 5 finalists for a forensic workstation being given away by Sumuri, a digital forensics company based in Delaware.
A forensic workstation is a high powered computer that enables law enforcement to examine everything from cell phones and tablets, to laptop computers and hard drives from desktop computers that are seized as evidence in criminal cases. This evidence is often ESSENTIAL in obtaining convictions in many serious cases.
The Harford Police Department currently utilizes a 5-year-old, regular desktop to conduct investigations such as this, and obtaining a computer of this magnitude would greatly enhance the department's ability to quickly, and efficiently investigate criminal cases involving electronic devices.
The Hartford Police Department would like to request the community's help in attempting to obtain this workstation, as it will give the department a highly upgraded piece of equipment, at no cost, which enables us to better serve the citizens of Hartford, and keep our community safe!
Please click on this link, vote for the Hartford Police Department, and share as much as you can!
Thank you for helping us make our community a safer place to work and live!!

Student Council would like to thank our generous blood donors who donate at one of our three drives during 2020. This year HUHS drives have collected 181 units of blood for Southeastern Wisconsin. While COVID has created a road bump, Student Council has been holding smaller drives, concluding the year with our last drive on December 11 collecting over 40 units. Due to our support of the Blood Center, we were able to award another scholarship to a deserving HUHS student. Congrats to Irene W our winner from the December drive. Student Council will be hosting another blood drive on January 18th. Sign up here

Hello HUHS Families!
Semester exams are quickly approaching for our learners. Please see the expectations about exams based on your student’s official instructional model. If you have any questions about what your student’s model is please contact their counselor.
Face-to-face students will take their exams in person, and will be expected to make up exams in this learning model if they become ill. This is similar to past practice for missed exams.
Virtual students will remain off-campus for their exams.

Hartford Wrestling Practice Facility Campaign |
The Hartford Athletic Department and Wrestling Program are excited to announce that on Monday, November 16, the HUHS School District approved plans to construct a new wrestling practice facility. This facility has been designed for year-round training and will become the new home for both the HUHS Wrestling team and the Hartford Youth Wrestling Program. We are very excited to be able to offer this exclusive space for the wrestling programs in our community.
This new facility will provide three full wrestling mats with subfloor as well as wall mats for our wrestlers’ safety. The space will also be conducive to hosting Hartford Wrestling Club dual meets. To make this practice facility a reality, we are asking the HUHS wrestling community, alumni, wrestling families, friends, and businesses to help us raise funds to cover the cost of the subfloor, mats, and training equipment.
We have already received a $10,000 mat sponsorship from the Hartford Wrestling Club! Thank you!
All gifts to the Hartford wrestling practice facility campaign are tax deductible and will be recognized in a donor display in the Hartford wrestling practice facility. Outlined below are several opportunities for you to contribute to this exciting project. Thank you in advance for your support!
