G-Harmony took 3rd place overall at their ICHSA Quarterfinal! Students had a ton of fun prepping and singing throughout the day while meeting other competing groups. They learned so much watching the other performances, and loved sharing their show. G-Harmony was also awarded Outstanding Soloist (Clara Svoboda) and Outstanding Arrangement (Holden Griffin) which was a huge honor. Special thank you to Kennedy Kapocius for your wonderful choreography, and congratulations to Ladies Knight and Limited Edition who will both be moving on to semifinals at the Pabst Theatre in March! Awesome job, Panthers!

A group of students attended the Northwestern Mutual/Milliman Actuary Science Seminar at the NM Headquarters in Downtown Milwaukee last week. The students learned about education necessary to become an actuary and received information on internships available for this career path. They spent time finding out about the typical "Day in the Life" of an Actuary, the Actuary Exams, and the Actuarial Career Path. They also explored a case study example and finished the day with a Q&A from two top executives from NM and Milliman. #LearnGrowEngageGreendale

Over twenty Greendale High students connected with local healthcare leaders at the Second Annual Hands-On Healthcare Careers Expo on February 3. Students learned about a variety of healthcare careers and made connections with local organizations that serve the community. The hands-on event, held at Greenfield High School and hosted by the Center for Healthcare Careers of Southeast Wisconsin, welcomed more than 1,000 students from across Southeast Wisconsin. It featured over 35 interactive experiences hosted by major healthcare partners, including Ascension, Advocate Aurora Health, Froedtert Health, and Children’s Wisconsin.

The students spoke with healthcare professionals, explored real-world demonstrations, and learned about education pathways and career opportunities across a wide range of health-related fields. This annual fair helps students to understand the vital role of these healthcare organizations in meeting workforce needs and supporting community well-being.

GHS Econ students participated in Reality Check Day as part of their learning on personal finance. Our partners from Educators Credit Union presented the exercise. Students were assigned a career, salary, and family status. Each then visited various stations to learn about budgeting and how individual purchases (and unexpected life circumstances - FATE!) impact your personal 'bottom line'. Many thanks to the volunteers, staff, and team from Educators who provide this eye-opening experience to our students. #LearnGrowEngageGreendale #CultivatingExcellence
