Hartford High School will be hosting a โ€œStuff the Busโ€ Food Drive competition between grade levels. The event will take place on Thursday, November 13th from 8:30-1:15 PM at Hardingโ€™s Friendly Market. Classes will be collecting cans during different time slots for the competition. The class that collects the most cans wins!

Students can bring in cans throughout the week and drop them off in a designated classroom or they can bring them the day of the event. Student Council members from each class will be working their shift at Hardings, so if community members want to bring food, we will be there to collect it. Be sure to drop it off at the correct time if you are supporting a specific grade level. All food will be donated to the local food pantry.

Here are the donation times for the classes.
Freshmen: 8:30-9:30 AM
Seniors: 9:30-10:30 AM
Sophomores: 10:30-11:30 AM
Juniors: 12:15-1:15 PM

10/30/2025  Dear Parents, Guardians, and Community Members,  At Hartford Public Schools, the safety and well-being of our students is our top priority. We are committed to providing a secure learning environment, and part of that commitment includes preparing for emergency situations in a proactive and effective manner.  This morning we conducted a school-wide lockdown drill. These drills are required and mandated by the state of Michigan. In order to preserve the safety of our students and faculty, these drills are not posted ahead of time.  We understand that drills may cause temporary concern or disruption, but they are a critical component of our emergency preparedness plan. Please be assured that all appropriate safety measures were in place and that the drill was conducted in a structured and sensitive manner. Thank you for your continued support in helping us maintain a safe and secure environment for all students and staff.  30/10/2025  Estimados padres, tutores y miembros de la comunidad:  En las Escuelas Pรบblicas de Hartford, la seguridad y el bienestar de nuestros estudiantes son nuestra mรกxima prioridad.
