What I love most about Indian Trail

Indian Trail is a very special place. While Indian Trail started as a smaller academy in 1998, the physical school itself became of comprehensive high school in 2010, making it only about 14 years old. It is an amazing and beautiful building! However, having gone through the pandemic, it became extremely clear to me that the building itself is not what makes it special. What makes ITHSA an amazing school is the students and staff who call this place home throughout the school year. We are extremely fortunate to have a very diverse population of students and staff who bring so many different cultures and perspectives to our daily lives. We believe that our school is capable of being one of the best high schools in Wisconsin and everything we do is intended to keep us moving in that direction. Our mission continues to focus on doing our best to unlock the tremendous potential of EVERY single student who walks through our door. By working together and expecting excellence, we can all achieve amazing things. Being a Hawk means something special and it is such an honor to be the principal of an amazing school that I truly love. Go Hawks!!!!!
