Doggone It..this is going to be ruff.
Hobbs the PN Huskie is retiring.
Hobbs joined us at Portage Northern in 2020 from Paws with a Cause. He was the first SEL comfort dog in our district and has paved the way for so many other dogs to join our PPS family.
We have seen firsthand the undeniable effectiveness Hobbs has had in the PACKstrong culture here at PN. He has been the best fur-end our Huskies could have asked for…even with the (slightly more than) occasional shenanigans and meal theft.
Please join us in wishing Hobbs a happy retirement! We will host Hobbs’ Retirement Paw-ty on Friday, September 20. Much like his birthdays at PN, students and staff are invited to stop by the Upper Commons for a hug and/or photo op-paw-tunity with Hobbs during passing times and lunches.
All dog puns aside, while it may not have looked like it, Hobbs has been working 5 days a week for (roughly) 180 days per year since 2020 and he has loved every minute of it. He has a lot of life yet to live…and he has certainly earned his days of leisurely walks and sleeping on the couch whenever and for as long as he wants.
While we are sad to see him go, we are fur-tunate to have had these last 4 years with him. Like the rest of us, Hobbs is definitely a #huskieforlife.
We have already begun the process of seeking Hobbs’ successor but there is a waiting list so it will take some time. If you are interested in donating to our SEL Dog Fund, please click the Information tab on the website and scroll to the bottom to “Support our Comfort Dog”.
What is next on Hobbs’ agenda? Anything is paw-sible.
It's a Great Night to Be a Huskie! Great night with the marching band, football team, songleaders, cheerleaders, Dog Pound and the rest of the fans! #packstrong

Check your email for the final reminder and link for the Class of 2025 Senior Tshirt order. The deadline for shirt orders is Sunday, September 1.
Hey Huskies...friendly reminder. THERE ARE NO FOOD DELIVERIES ALLOWED FOR STUDENTS. Failure to comply may result in hungry teenagers with no lunch.
Hey Huskie Households! As we get back into the school year, it's important to remember that students who are not involved in a supervised activity after school must leave the building by 2:50pm. Unfortunately we do not have staff to supervise students after school hours. Students waiting for a ride are welcome to wait for their ride outside the building. Thank you for your cooperation.
