Hartford Union High School (commonly known as HUHS) is a public high school in Hartford, Wisconsin. It has an enrollment of about 1700 students.

The high school is part of only ten union high school districts in Wisconsin. This means that the high school is a district to itself and is not part of the Hartford Joint 1 district, which runs the middle and elementary schools in Hartford. In fact, students from seven public middle schools and numerous private schools attend HUHS, and the HUHS school district covers 225 square miles.

The current building was built in 1958.

The district administrator is Dr. Michael Kremer.

Students that come to Hartford from Richfield Elementary School are said to be more educated than those from the fledging Hartford Joint #1 district. It's mostly true. A Richfield-area high school was supposed to be in the works early in 2000's on Hwy. 167, but Northbrook Church was built in its place. This is a catastrophic mistake, as it makes no sense that Richfield students, a town that is 20 minutes driving away from Hartford, go to Hartford. A logical choice would be for Hartford to let go of Richfield, and allow it to be part of a nearer district, such as Germantown, with students feeding into nearby Germantown High School (almost half the distance and time away from the general student body.) But then again, logic has never been the Hartford district's strong suit, both in the classroom of elementary schools, in the administration, and in the school board.
