Warrior News
A Weekly Newsletter for Warrior Families and Students
October 4, 2019
Greetings Warrior Families and Friends,
So the weather may have turned a bit colder but things have continued to heat up here at Muskego High School! Our Warrior student-athletes continue to do amazing things in every realm, from our Tennis team winning the Classic 8 Conference Championship to WIAA Golf Regional match qualifier Leah Minchk. It doesn’t matter what the sport is, our Warriors are dedicated and working hard to represent what it means to be a Warrior.
Speaking of dedicated, huge THANK YOU to the hundreds of families who showed up to our Parent/Teacher Conferences on Thursday night. The outstanding partnership and support we receive from our families is the foundation for the success we have. Thank you!
Take a look at our upcoming events on our school’s web page and come out to MHS to support our Warriors!
Have a great weekend and we hope to see you soon.
Go Warriors!

Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) Test
Muskego High School will be offering the ASVAB to any interested junior or senior Thursday morning, October 17th, at Muskego High School. The test is free of charge and will take approximately 3 hours. The Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) is a multiple-choice test, administered by the United States Military Entrance Processing Command, used to determine qualification for enlistment in the United States Armed Forces. Although the test is administered by the military, it is not (and never has been) a requirement that a test-taker with a qualifying score enlist in the armed forces. Students can register for the ASVAB by responding to the survey emailed by Student Services. Students should respond to the survey by Friday, October 11th. For more information feel free to contact Mr. Smith, School Counselor, 262-971-1790.
