COVID-19 Resource & Communication Center
Lake Geneva Schools continue to closely monitor the COVID-19 global pandemic. Please know that the health and safety of our students and staff is our top priority. We will be continually updating our official COVID information on our own dashboard located on each school's website and labeled COVID-19 Resource and Communication Center. There you will find up-to-date information and numbers of COVID-19 cases in our schools. The Dashboard is updated Monday through Friday with the latest information.
Badger High School Music Department Presents - Breakfast with Santa - the Drive-Thru Edition
Annually, the Badger High School Music Department hosts its Breakfast with Santa event. This year, the Badger Music Department doesn’t plan to let COVID ruin the holiday fun. They got creative and are hosting the Breakfast with Santa, drive-thru style! Families will drive the route making stops along the way to pick-up muffins and juice boxes, drop-off pre-written letters to Santa, give Santa a wave and grab two at-home craft bags. Throughout the entire route, families can tune in to FM107.01 on their radio to listen to Badger Music Department’s live performances. 

The Music Department fundraiser takes place on Saturday, December 5, 2020, from 8:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. All donations collected support the Badger Music Department. The event will take place outside Badger High School. Enter the commons lot from Wells Street and follow the drive-thru route.
Don't forget about the Daily At-Home Health Check

Please complete the Daily At-Home Health Check prior to sending your student to school. It is vital to ask the questions on the checklist each and every day to prevent the possibility of exposing other students or staff. This checklist is to be filled out at home, daily on the honor system. It is not required to be handed into the school.

If you answer yes to any of the questions on the checklist:
- Keep your student home.
- Let the school office know the questions which were answered yes.
- Follow the appropriate guidelines for when to return to school: 

Thank you!
