11th Graders Tour Ferris
Once again, our students were able to do some college exploration, thanks to WMU’s GEAR UP program. On March 21st, a group of juniors took a charter bus to Ferris State University in Big Rapids. After a presentation by the Admissions representative, students toured campus and learned about the great programs Ferris has to offer. Before leaving campus, students enjoyed a delicious lunch at The Rock Café. On a side note, it was great to see 2024 HHS graduates Mauritza Cruz and Erin Glover, who are completing their freshman year at Ferris!

Ginessa Aguirre - HHS - Sports Highlight
CLASS OF 2025
Ginessa was first introduced to the world of adaptive sports at about age 5 through the Hartford League of Miracles. She has tried many adaptive sports including soccer, bowling, softball, tennis, pickleball and basketball. All of which she has had fun playing but the sport she loved out of all is wheelchair basketball which she continues to play competitively.
Ginessa first joined the Mary Free Bed Junior Pacers Prep team playing wheelchair basketball at the young age of 8 years old. Currently, she plays on the MFB Jr Pacers Varsity team as well as on the Women’s team both of
which are national leagues through the National Wheelchair Basketball Association (NWBA). She has been noticed as a scholar athlete by the NWBA for maintaining her academics in good standing at school while playing the sport she loves. After graduating from HHS Ginessa will be attending KVCC to pursue her career in Culinary Arts and will continue playing wheelchair basketball in the Women’s division.
Ginessa and the Varsity team will be competing in the NWBA Junior Wheelchair Basketball National Championships. They will be traveling to Richmond, Virginia on April 4-6, 2025 where they will play with the top 32 ranked teams in the Varsity level. On April 25-27, 2025 Ginessa will travel to Fort Wayne, Indiana and play in the 2025 Women’s and Military Division Wheelchair Basketball National Championships with the Women’s team.
Family Input:
We are extremely grateful to the Hartford Public Schools system as they have supported Ginessa's sports career. Although wheelchair basketball is not a sport that is offered through the school system, HPS has acknowledged Ginessa as an athlete. It truly means alot to us that her competitive adaptive sport has been taken into consideration and is being recognized as a school athlete. We will forever be grateful for all the support that HPS has shown us. Thank you to everyone that has been with us throughout Ginessa’s journey from her 1st day at Preschool through her last day as a HPS graduate. Go Huskies!!
Due to the low temperatures predicted tomorrow and worse wind chills, Varsity baseball and softball contests @ Lawton tomorrow (4/8) have been canceled.
