Arrowhead High School
Arrowhead Area Veterans Tribute
Craig Haase, Joe Paul, and Ron Reichle, members of the Arrowhead Social Studies Department have been working for several months developing a veteran’s display case, which is located in the North Campus commons at Arrowhead High School. On December 8, 2012 a dinner celebration was hosted at Arrowhead High School with over 140 veterans and their family members to officially "open" the display.

Mr. Haase, Mr. Paul, and Mr. Reichle, along with their students have worked very hard to identify Hartland High School Veterans and Arrowhead High School Veterans to be recognized and honored in the display. Several artifacts, donated by veterans and their families, are on display in the showcase. Fundraising efforts, along with generous donations from the following individuals, organizations, and businesses have made the display and the dinner recognition possible:
Anonymous Display Case Bronson Haase Family
Kath Godluck Bryan Mullett Family
Klink’s Carpet Lorleberg’s Hardware Store
Al Zietlow Kent Rice
Bob Rosch Sue & Mark Casetta
Cheri Kaiser John Chessario

Thanks to the efforts of the Arrowhead staff, students, veterans, their families, and several community members, the Veterans Display Case will be a permanent part of Arrowhead High School representing a tribute to our Veterans for all to experience. Please come and visit our school to see the display.
