Muskego Teacher's Memory Honored with Naming of Observatory at High School
Former science and astronomy teacher Jerry Stueber passed away earlier this year, and an observatory at Muskego High School, which was unknown to many, will get new life and a new name to honor him.

Stueber's astronomy students used the facility, as well as other students, staff and an astronomy club that formed as a result. The decline in interest has left the observatory idle, and apparently forgotten, until now. "I have to admit, I worked inside the school for four years, and…

However, amid the sweets on the table was a message of encouragement for families who are considering hosting a student, or perhaps allowing their child to venture around the world to study in a foreign country themself. Fernanda Balthazor, who was once an AFS student herself, explained the possibilities amidst the pastries, which came from Italy, Germany, Greece, Mexico and many other countries.

Thank you Jerry and Mr Lang for making this honor happen. There are a few more assets there at the high school that could be renamed for our former great teachers and coaches who dedicated their all for the students. . Some … more ›
