Hauser French students celebrated the Winter Solstice a day early and decorated their bûches de Noël!

Wishing all our Cougars a safe and restful winter break!

At the December 18, 2024 Board Meeting, the Riverside School District 96 Board approved Mr. Chris Harvalis as the principal of Hauser Junior High, effective July 1, 2025. He will replace the current principal, Mrs. April Mahy, who will be retiring at the end of the 2024-25 school year. We are grateful to Mrs. Mahy for her leadership at Hauser over the past 10 years. Like all our District 96 schools, Hauser is a wonderful place to learn and grow because of our dedicated staff and strong leadership. We're confident that Mr. Harvalis will continue this tradition of excellence.

Sparkle the Elf had a great day at Hauser hiding from students, making a mess, and hanging around.

Keep your eyes open around Hauser today! Our Elf, Sparkle, will be hiding!
