Katherine Madsen, a senior at Hiawatha High School, has received the Dale M. Dennis Excellence in Education Award, sponsored by United School Administrators of Kansas.
High School Principal, Lori Fordyce, announced Friday Kate Madsen has demonstrated the characteristics necessary to receive this annual award given in honor of a distinguished Kansas educational leader. Recipients of this award are identified from their schools and across the state as individuals who have displayed the citizenship, community and schools service, scholarship, and strong self-awareness that make them a quality individual.
The Dale M. Dennis Excellence in Education Award was established in 1996 by Kansas school administrators to honor the long and valuable service Dale M. Dennis, Deputy Commissioner of the Kansas State Department of Education, has provided to the students and educators of Kansas. The individual attributes which characterize Dale M. Dennis as a friend of education, and more importantly as a first class citizen, are the basis for determining the recipient of this award.

A special THANK YOU to all Hiawatha USD 415 teachers. This school year has been weird to say the least. But we’re getting through it, thanks to our Teachers. This year where instruction could be virtual, in-person or a mix of both, their immense work and impact have provided a much-needed sense of community connection. Despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, our teachers have worked hard to ensure every student had the tools they needed to reach their full potential.
The Brown County Association of Retired Educators recently partnered with our Horticulture class to plant this tree at the high school.
Saturday May 1st was National School Principal's day. We could not let our principals go unnoticed. With all the chaos of the last two years our principals have overcome and conquered. Thank you for all you do for the staff and students of Hiawatha USD 415!
Hiawatha High School is pleased to present this year's musical production of Grease: School Edition. The students have been working incredibly hard on this show and we are excited to showcase the wonderful talent we have.
The show will take place on May 7th and 8th at 6 PM at the Courthouse steps on the south side. You will need to bring your own lawn chairs or have blankets to sit on the ground. It is recommended that you maintain sufficient spacing while watching the show. There is no ticket fee, but will have a free-will donation box and all proceeds will go to the HHS theater department. The school edition of Grease removes all references to drugs and alcohol so you can be sure to bring the whole family. We ask that there is no video recording during the production.
This year has been a challenging one and this musical has been no different. With all the sports, activities, schoolwork, and all the other things going on, these students have risen to the challenge and we truly have a special show for you. We hope to see you join us for a wonderful evening.
