Harwood Middle School Update, October 26, 2018 

Curious about water quality?   Ask you 7th grader what they discovered this past Wednesday.    

Pictured above 7th grade explorers were shown how to do a site assessment and take a field sample of macro-invertebrates by "real" scientists from VT EPSCoR! The biological data gathered on Wednesday will help inform our investigation around the water quality of the Lozelle Brook.

HUMS Connecting with our local farmers.

7th Grade Chefs (PBL students) prepping delicata squash in the HU kitchen for the Farm to School Lunch this past Wednesday.

HUMS future pilots connecting through a video chat with Major Joy Nickels, an Apache helicopter pilot.  Awesome!  

Harwood Union Middle/High School

Student Led Conferences

Harwood Union will be hosting student-led conferences for all parents and students in grades 7-12. Conferences will be held on two evenings, November 8th and November 14th. Parents will have the option to select one 30-minute meeting time per student on either of these two dates.

We have provided directions for you to access the online scheduling program to book your student-led conferences. If you have more than one student attending Harwood, you would need to schedule a conference time for each student. Online access to schedule your conference will be available beginning October 19th.

Please refer to the directions below to schedule your conference.

If you have any questions, please contact Liz Hepp at lhepp@wwsu.org.
