Looking Forward to The Arrowhead Boy’s Hockey 2026/27 Season

As the Arrowhead High School boys varsity ice hockey team hits the ice for the start of the 2026–27 winter campaign, the Warhawks face a familiar high school sports challenge: replacing a seasoned core of graduated seniors while integrating a hungry group of underclassmen. Competing in the always-grueling Classic 8 Conference, Arrowhead’s success this winter will hinge on how quickly its returning talent can fill the void left by the Class of 2026.

Oshkosh North's Awut Alic signs to play basketball at DePaul University

OSHKOSH – Oshkosh North senior Awut Alic sat in front of future Oshkosh North girls basketball players on "Meet the Spartans night" where the varsity team meets and interacts with girls from the youth program. But it also was a special night for Alic who accomplished a goal she's been working towards since she was like one of those girls in attendance. "It's pretty exciting just to see how much I accomplished and just to be celebrated a little. It still hasn't hit me," Alic said. "I'm just thankful for everybody who came out to watch me sign." On Thursday, Nov. 12, Alic signed to play Division I basketball at DePaul University. She committed to DePaul on July 28. She chose DePaul over Butler, Illinois State, Murray State and Northern Illinois who were all in her top five. "That was always the goal when I was younger. I always dreamed of playing Division I basketball," Alic said. She's the second Oshkosh North girls basketball player to sign to play women's basketball at the Division I level. The first was Lori McGinnis (formerly Goerlitz) who played at Marquette University and was the 1991 Wisconsin Ms. Basketball. More: North Fond du Lac’s

After 34 years, Assata High School suddenly closing in November

Assata High School, which since 1992 has served Milwaukee students at risk of not graduating from high school, plans to close at the end of November because of low enrollment. The news came in a Nov. 3 letter from Tony Kearney, president of the board of directors for Assata, to Milwaukee Public Schools Superintendent Brenda Cassellius. The closure will be effective Nov. 30, he wrote. As a partnership school, Assata is run as a nonprofit by an independent board of directors, but it relies on a contract with MPS for funding and oversight. It offers credit recovery courses and career exploration. The Milwaukee School Board is scheduled to consider the mutual termination of its contract with Assata at a meeting Nov. 12 . In his letter to MPS, Kearney expressed "sincere regret" about the closure. "This decision was reached after careful consideration and is the result of declining enrollment over the past couple of years, a trend that has made it no longer possible to serve our scholars at the level they deserve," Kearney wrote. Assata has enrolled between 90 and 130 students each year for the past two decades, state data show. In 2024, enrollment dropped to 78, then

Small Wisconsin school district to dissolve after voters reject referendum

(The Center Square) – The Hustisford School District, in eastern Wisconsin, is going away. Wisconsin’s School District Boundary Appeal Board on voted to dissolve the district. It is the first time since 1990 board agreed to close a school district. Hustisford has just 238 students in the entire district and has been losing students for years. The school district asked voters for a $4 million referendum in April, but it failed. Quickly after the election, Hustisford Schools then began the process of shutting down. The vote was the final step. Wisconsin's state superintendent blamed a lack of money, and how the entire state of Wisconsin pays for schools for the shutdown. "The Hustisford School District is a casualty of decades of an antiquated, broken school funding formula that has failed to keep pace with the costs of educating our children," State Superintendent Dr. Jill Underly said in a statement. But Hustisford Schools were spending about the state's average per student. Budget numbers show Hustisford's budget was more than $6 million per year and show that the school spends about $22,000 per student. That's more than Wisconsin's state average of nearly $18,000 per student. Hustisford is in rural Dodge County, and
