Greetings Washington HS Families. My Name is Alex Kuxhause and I am the new school leader of Washington HS. It is with great pride and honor that I continue the excellent traditions of Washington High School with your children, and the community of Washington HS. I hope this letter finds you and your family well and enjoying the rest of your summer.
The focus of Washington HS is going to be on improving student outcomes and offering many great post-secondary opportunities to our students. I look forward to building many great relationships with you and your family. I would like to provide your child with a safe learning environment where they can thrive and be themselves.
The 2023-24 school year will mark my 15th year as an educator working in MPS. Since I graduated from UWM Milwaukee, I have worked in several different schools. I was a special education teacher at Audubon HS for 6 years before becoming a school administrator. I have been a school administrator at Obama SCTE, Milwaukee School of Languages, and Bay View HS.
To our students, I cannot wait to meet you all! I hope that you are excited for this coming school year and that you are out this summer playing and reading tons of books with your family and friends. It is going to be a fun year learning together.
In closing, please know that my door is always open to you. I heartily welcome your conversation and positive input throughout this year. Let us always keep our students the primary focus of our work. I look forward to celebrating our collective successes during the 2023-2024 school year. Enjoy the remaining days of summer!
Alex Kuxhause
