Hartsburg-Emden CUSD #21, is proud to
announce that two students from the graduating Class of 2024 have
been designated as Illinois State Scholars. Congratulations to Noah
Doolin and Jace Whitted.
Terry Wisniewski will be “retiring”
from Hartsburg Emden in July. Terry is not officially retiring but
instead will be moving to take the Chief School Business Official
Position at O’Fallon District 90. Terry has been at Hartsburg Emden
for 13 years serving as both Principal and Superintendent.
Prescott Davis gets
ready to enter the Dexter Room for Blood Spatter Analysis.
Students from the Forensic Science class at Hartsburg
Emden cover a lot of interesting topics. This year, they were
invited to participate in the LEJA Open House at Western Illinois
University. The students were able to attend workshops on topics
such as Search and Rescue Using Thermal Imaging, Terrorist Target
Prioritizing, Paramedic & EMT Demonstrations, Live Burn Patterns,
Canine Demonstrations, Polygraph Demonstrations and Detecting
Deceptions/Behavioral Analysis. While many of these topics are
covered in the high school course, it is not easy to access the
tools to do neat demonstrations. We will be attending this Open
House on a yearly basis.
The Ag Shop Gets a Facelift…….
The Hartsburg-Emden Jr.-Sr. High School completed an agriculture
classroom renovation along with an agriculture shop addition this
past fall. The shop addition includes welding booths, small engine
workbenches with tool storage, shelving for small engines, a shop
sink, and bathroom. This addition will be used by both the
agriculture mechanics classes and the small engine class. The old
agriculture shop will now be used for carpentry classes which
includes work benches, saws and hand tools, and lumbar storage.
Agriculture students are buzzing with excitement to start using the
new facilities this spring. These additions will benefit our
students by providing them with current industry-used machines and
tools that they will learn how to use and master before attending
trade schools and college.
