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!
Hartford Union High School has several great job opportunities which include Substitute Teacher (part-time) and Teacher Aides (Paraprofessional) (full-time). The Paraprofessional position offers full-time benefits and is a school year position.  Please apply online at www.huhs.org. If you have any questions regarding any future opportunities please contact Human Resources at 262-670-3200 x4060 or marylynn.christian@huhs.org.
ATTENDANCE REMINDER: Parents/Guardians - Please remember to contact the attendance office for the following reasons:

  • Your face-to-face student will not be coming to school for any reason
  • Your Virtual Learning student will not be logging in to their classes

Also: Please allow ample time to excuse your student for an appointment during the day as we are experiencing a high volume of attendance communications.

You may contact attendance by calling 262-670-3200 and selecting Option 1. If you get voicemail, please leave a message as they are checked on a regular basis. You may also email attendanceoffice@huhs.org.
HUHS has Breakfast and Lunch available at no cost for all community children regardless of free/reduced lunch status. Students attending school on-campus go through the line as usual and will receive a meal at no charge. Virtual Learners and non-enrolled children are able to pick up Curbside Meals with advance order at no cost. A child does not need to be enrolled at HUHS to receive a meal but should not be receiving duplicate meals from other community locations.
We have some Educator of the Year/Herb Kohl recipients that we need to contact. If anyone knows how to contact them or a family member so we can return their plaques to them please contact janet.jocham@huhs.org or 262-670-3200 ext 4020 with contact information or to arrange to pick them up.
