Welcome to Edgerton's newest staff members Mrs. McKnight, Special Educator and Mr. Devine, Physical Education.

Mrs. Nicole McKnight - My name is Nicole McKnight. This is my 7th year in the classroom. I previously taught special education in the West Allis-West Milwaukee School District for three years and in my home state of Indiana for three years. I grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana and did my undergraduate work at Indiana University; graduating in 2012. I also completed a graduate program for special education certification in 2014 from Butler University. In my free time, I love to sew, take barre classes, and cheer on the Hoosiers and Bulldogs during March Madness! I live in Milwaukee with my husband. We take care of many houseplants, including a cactus that is 22 years old! I am looking forward to serving the families of the Whitnall School District!

Mr. Dustin Devine - Hello, my name is Dustin Devine and I am teaching physical education at Edgerton Elementary. Before coming to Edgerton I was a long term substitute at a couple of different placements in the Franklin School District. I received my undergraduate degree from Carroll University in physical and health education while also receiving my adaptive license. Outside of school I love to spend time with my family and friends. I really enjoy being outdoors and being active. I also am a huge Green Bay Packers fan, GO PACK GO!!! Being a former student at Edgerton Elementary I am really excited to be back in the Whitnall community. This year I am looking forward to working with the amazing staff and families here at Whitnall. I am so excited to start off this school year and l can’t wait to get to know our kids and help them grow!!

In addition, Nancy Swokowski is the new face in the EES kitchen and Shannon Verdegan is our new noon hour recess supervisor. We welcome them to the Edgerton family! We are also thrilled to have Mrs. Larsen, our school counselor, back this year.

The Edgerton PTO will be sponsoring its annual Book Fair from October 1 - 5, 2018. This year's theme is "Enchanted Forest - Let Your Imagination Grow!" Every Edgerton student will receive a coupon for a free book courtesy of the PTO. Students will visit the book fair during their regularly scheduled library time. Information about the book fair was recently sent home with your child.

The book fair will also be open on Thursday evening, October 4th during the annual Spaghetti Dinner. Registration forms were recently sent home with students.

In order to enhance the well-being of students and staff, Whitnall School District has partnered with Raptor Technologies in implementing new check-in/out procedures for the 2018-2019 school year.  All visitors that want to go beyond the front office must check in using the Raptor system. All first time visitors to the District since the implementation of Raptor, must sign in using their driver’s license or other valid form of identification. The Raptor system does not scan the ID, it collects First Name, Last Name, Date of Birth, Partial ID# and picture. First time visitors or first time users of the Raptor Visitor Management system should expect a few extra minutes to scan ID. Student safety is our number one priority. Thank you for your cooperation in following these new procedures.
