Celebrating Students
FLES 3rd Grader Coders Club
According to Wonder Workshop, 7,890 teams consisting of 35,445 kids from 69 countries participated this year. Just under 500 teams made it into the invitational round, and all three of our 3rd grade FLES teams made it!
Below is the link for the final submissions for the three groups for the FLES 3rd grader Coders Club. The videos are long, but worth a view! Stay tuned for next month when we feature the team shots (and results) from their final competition.

Since that time, we have another recorded first: We are sending three students to the National National History Day Contest in Washington DC later this year! These three students are representing two projects.

2019 HUHS Parent Community Survey
Hartford Union High School (HUHS) recently completed a strategic planning process which involved a team of 30 stakeholders. This group reviewed school performance data, participated in focus groups and then developed the following goals:

- Goal #2: HUHS will be viewed as the community’s “high school of choice” HUHS will be viewed as the community’s “high school of choice.”
- Goal #3: Engagement of All Stakeholders HUHS will increase each stakeholder group’s engagement and satisfaction.
- Goal #4: Master Facilities Plan Develop a master facility plan for the school buildings and grounds.
Using these goals as a planning framework, we are seeking your input on this community-wide survey to help us answer three important questions:

- What are our highest priorities?
To participate, please complete the survey between April 17th and May 6th by clicking here.
