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.
Events
Both HUHS and community events will be posted here.
Up-to-date health and safety information will be posted here.
Friendly Reminder: If your student is not feeling well during the school day, they must report to the Health Room as per our procedures. The Health Room is located at the corner by the cafeteria hallway. Students should not be calling or texting parents/guardians to tell them they are not feeling well and want to go home.

Thank you in advance for you help communicating this to your student.
