Immunization Requirement Changes:

We were just sent information regarding changes to the immunization requirements for students from Wisconsin’s Department of Health Services. These changes will go into effect for the 2023-2024 school year. Please review the linked document and consult with your child’s physician so that they are ready to begin the school year next fall.

Snow Days:

I have had many questions regarding the need to add a day or two to our school calendar due to the number of unexpected snow days this year. After reviewing the calendar and adding up instructional minutes, we still meet the required amount of instructional time and will not need to add a day to the school year. Let’s keep your fingers crossed that we are done with snow days for this school year!!

SAC Pizza Fundraiser:

Thank you, once again, to all of our families who participated in our Pizza fundraiser. Our three top sellers this year were Chace Pelkowski (K5), Peyton Lalk (K5), and McKenna Breidenbach (3). All three of these students sold around $1,000 worth of pizzas each. We appreciate all the time and effort that went into this fundraiser. Together we raised over $5,000 for our school.

Lenten Activities:

Every Friday during Lent (except 3/3), at 2:40 pm in the church, the Middle School students will lead the Stations of the Cross. All are welcome!!

After-School Care:

If you are in need of after-school care for your child, please remember to complete the March calendar.  

In order to be able to provide adequate supervision we ask that parents sign their children up at least one day in advance. Any changes should be reported to the office that morning. Due to staffing requirements, we may not be able to accommodate last-minute requests. If your child is not on the after-school care list they should not be staying after school! Supervision is required for any student in the building after hours.
