A community can be defined by an area or by a common characteristic. The Southwest 10 Athletic Conference is looking to promote and support both. The Athletic Directors of the Southwest 10 are encouraging our communities to make a donation to the Make-A-Wish foundation to help create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Being able to grant a wish not only helps and transform the life of a child, but the family and community in which they live.
The Southwest 10 Athletic Conference is asking for your support in donating to this worthy cause. By scanning and donating, you are making a commitment to be a part of a community that can and will make a difference. These signs with QR codes will be posted at HPS athletic facilities.

A letter from the HPS Medical Team:
Dear Hartford Family,
As we look ahead to the 2025-2026 school year, we want to ensure all our students with medical needs are well-supported.
If your child will be attending Hartford Public Schools, and has a medical condition that requires care or medication during school hours, we need your help. The district requires specific forms to be completed. These include the medical release form, medication authorization forms, and medical management plans, which must be signed by your child's physician and dated after July 1st, 2025. Medical management plans are more in depth instructions that pertain to a specific condition.
Conditions that often require medical management plans include:
Asthma
Life-threatening allergies (anaphylaxis), including food allergies
Seizures
Diabetes
If your child has one or more of these conditions, please go to the school’s webpage to print the appropriate forms and take these to your child’s doctor for completion.
Please remember: We cannot give medication or make changes to food service for your child at school without written permission from both you and their medical provider (emergency situations are an exception).
Thank you for partnering with us to keep our students happy and healthy. Go Huskies!
