PTO
Coffee Connection
We had some great conversations at the first ever Coffee Connection! Make sure you stop in and join us for some FREE COFFEE on the first Friday in June for our second Coffee Connection!
Incredible Donation
An amazing thing happened Friday night! All Four valley PTOs were gratuitously chosen by Lawson's Finest Liquids to be the recipients of the amazing tip program. For two weeks, four PTOs were described to visitors, many out of state, by the amazing staff here in order to garner interest in supporting each of our local nonprofits. The wonderful things that can be accomplished with this money are going to be incredibly special and make an impact. But perhaps just as wonderful was the collaboration time, time spent with the Presidents of each valley PTO discussing experiences and brainstorming and how we can continue to get together. Lawson’s was the catalyst to this wonderful collaboration and it will certainly become something we do more of (the amazing beer helps that!)!
A heartfelt thank you to the Lawson’s, especially Karen, who made this happen and appreciated how special it would be to have all the valley PTOs together in this!

BACKGROUND: These community conversations are the next step in our plan to develop a vision and goals for the HUUSD district. It follows the community wide survey which closed on April 12 and received over 700 responses. We expect to publish results of the survey and conversations in June 2019, and develop a first draft of the vision/goals in time for the board retreat, which will occur sometime in August 2019. The hope is for the board to finalize the vision/goals in the Fall of 2019.
As always, thank you for engaging with us about education in our district!
The HUUSD School Board
