WRAPPING UP THE SCHOOL YEAR!

If you can believe it, we are in our last few days of the 2022-23 school year! We're proud of the personal and academic growth the HS^2 students have demonstrated throughout this school year, and we are excited and sad to say goodbye to our graduating class this next week as they leave our school and head to new opportunities.


A couple of end of the school year reminders:


  • The last day of school for HS^2 is Tuesday, June 6th. The last chance to submit work for HS^2 courses to be graded and reflected on the June transcript is 2:35 pm on Wednesday, May 31 (grade 12) and 2:35 pm Tuesday, June 6th (grades 9-11).


  • KMHS classes end on Friday, June 9th. If you are in a KMHS class, you are expected to attend until June 8th (Blue) or June 9th (Gold). There will likely be important assessments in the last few days, and your attendance is required.


  • Next year's schedules are currently being worked on, and will continue to be modified throughout the summer. As scheduling conflicts arise, students and/or parents will be contacted via email to make decisions about appropriate course selection to ensure academic success, while moving towards meeting the graduation requirements.


As important details about the 2023-24 school year are released, we will share information via shortened newsletter, email, and/or using our social media platforms. As always, if you have questions please reach out to Mrs. Ladsten, HS^2 Director, your student's advisor, or any of the other school educators.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT DAY

On Friday, May 19 we had our second Community Engagement Day! Our students spent the day participating in various community events both inside and outside of the school building! We are excited for all of the opportunities that were made available for our students, and we're very grateful for everyone that has helped make this day run smoothly and be successful!


It was an amazing way to bond as a community, while having fun and giving back. What a great way to finish out the week!

DISCOVERING HEALTHCARE EXPO

The Waukesha County Business Alliance and local healthcare providers partnered to host the Discovering Healthcare Expo that HS^2 students had the opportunity to attend on Thursday, May 25. At the event, the students were able to learn about a variety of career paths within the healthcare industry from experts representing southeastern Wisconsin's top healthcare providers. In addition, colleges and universities were in attendance to help students learn about post-secondary options. Some of the career occupations highlighted were: patient care, sports medicine, information technology, nutrition, nursing, cancer care, therapy, dental, and more!
