DISTRICT MISSION: The mission of the Cedarburg School District is to provide an exemplary education that challenges students in a nurturing environment to develop into lifelong learners, to become responsible adults, and to achieve their goals and dreams.

This year's staff newsletter will be published on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month. Contributors could be any district-level department. It is designed to provide you with a culmination of essential information. We hope this is helpful. If there is something you would like to see in a future issue, let us know.

Cedarburg School District takes pride in the quality of education provided to its students, thanks to the hard work and dedication of our outstanding staff!

Annual Art in the Burg

A successful Saturday supporting the CHS art programs - a big THANK YOU to all our CHS fine arts teachers, student artists, performers and helpers, volunteers and CHS Band Boosters.

Webster STEAM Fair

Guided by Jodi Rogahn, Webster Middle School’s annual STEAM Fair took place last Thursday. Each year, this optional, exciting, and interactive event allows students to explore STEAM-related topics, showcase their creative projects, and ignite their curiosity. A huge thank you to our staff, judges, and everyone who contributed to making this event successful—our students always do an amazing job!

"Stuff The Bus" Drive

All last week, elementary staff, students, and their families collected items for the Ozaukee Food Alliance as part of the annual "Stuff the Bus" drive. A big thank you goes to the staff, students, families, and PTOs who all came together to support those in need! All week long, we were excited to see which elementary school would win the STB Trophy this year AND which principal of the winning school would get pied in the face in celebration of Pi Day!! All three schools showed up BIG TIME, and we are proud of all our staff's efforts to support our community! Small but mighty Westlawn won with the most pounds per student – so Katie Ramos looks forward to getting PIED this week! This is such a great example of school community spirit of giving. Well done to everyone involved!

CHS 180° Program

In an awards program full of Bulldog spirit and pride, this morning, thirty CHS students were honored at the 13th annual 180 ̊ Awards Ceremony at the Kacmarcik Center for Human Performance. This program each year recognizes students who have demonstrated personal growth and determination by increasing their semester grade point average by .75 or more. A heartfelt thank you to the CHS staff, teachers, and families for their continued support and encouragement for our students!

We are committed to improving our services, and to support this goal, we are once again conducting our annual staff input survey this spring. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us recognize our strengths, identify areas for improvement, and prioritize our planning for the year ahead.

We are continuing our partnership with the same independent educational research firm, School Perceptions. We will use the same survey format as in previous years. Rest assured, all responses will remain anonymous and confidential.

The survey will be open from April 7 to April 21 until 5:00 PM. We kindly ask that all staff complete the survey, which will be emailed to you on Monday, the 7th, when the survey launches. As we did last year, you will have the opportunity to complete it during the April 7th PD day or at a time designated by your building principal during that week. A parent survey will also be distributed during the same survey window.

April 7th PD Day

Principals are in the final stages of determining the schedule for the April 7th PD day. The morning (7:45-11 am) is dedicated to development and the afternoon will be reserved for records. Please watch for building-specific agendas.

H Drive Clean-Up

Shortly before the April 7th PD day, all staff will receive information on how to review, delete, and/or clean up items on the H drive. This work will need to be completed before leaving for the summer. A new network storage server will be installed, and H drive storage will be created for users with special circumstances. Please be sure to review the information carefully. Help sessions will also be scheduled before the end of the year for staff members who need assistance or have any questions.

Course Overviews

Upon the return from Spring Break, Alli will be releasing information on how to review each course overview and edit it for any updates/changes.  This work will be outlined in April and will be expected to be completed and verified before leaving for the summer.  Currently staff are not able to edit their course overview but editing rights will be opened after spring break.  Course overview edits will require collaboration between teachers to make sure that all items of the overview are accurate.  These overviews are forward facing on our website for parents to review.

School Board Committee & Regular Board Meetings

The School Board Bulletin briefly overviews key discussions and actions taken during Board committees and regular meetings. You can read more in the School Board Bulletin below. For more detailed information, please visit the CSD BoardDocs site to review the meeting agenda and minutes.

Gmail Vacation Responder

As a reminder, all staff should set a vacation responder in Gmail when out of the office or classroom. Please visit the following site for steps on how to set up an automatic reply in Gmail. Feel free to reach out to the technology department with any questions.

What an incredible journey it’s been! The team's earned this opportunity, and we are all so proud. Play with heart, give it your all, and most importantly, enjoy every moment! We’re all cheering you on—go Bulldogs!
