A child’s ability to read has a direct effect on their future success. Reading with your child helps to increase their vocabulary and improves their reading fluency and comprehension.

Our annual #QuinneyReads school event will take place this month starting with Read Across America Week as the kick-off.  We will celebrate reading throughout the week and month at school by reading a fun ways, with mystery readers, and more.  The PAC is also pairing this event with a Read-a-thon fundraiser.  Watch your email for more information throughout the month.  At the culmination of the month students will each receive a book purchased by the EQ PAC.

On March 2nd, as part of Read Across America, we encourage EVERYONE to pick up a book and read to a child.  Whether it’s a beloved classic or something new and exciting, we encourage you to spread the joy of reading.  For more information, visit NEA’s Read Across America site at www.readacrossamerica.org.







YEARBOOK DEADLINE is March 15th!

Help kids grow up alcohol-free: 

Have small talks

Small talks about underage drinking can make a difference in a kid’s choices. That’s because kids really do listen. Research shows having frequent, casual conversations about alcohol, starting around age 8, can be a lot more effective—and a lot less intimidating—than one super serious discussion. So, start talking. Keep listening. Help give a kid the confidence to grow up alcohol-free. Visit SmallTalksWI.org (link is external) for talk tips, facts, and more. “Small Talks” is sponsored by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services in collaboration with partners statewide including the Kaukauna Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Abuse Prevention Board.  





Community Events and Activity Flyers

There are a great many worthy undertakings in the Kaukauna Area School District that understandably deserve public support. The Board of Education/School District assist with this process in providing notice to students and/or families of certain non-school-related community activities/programs that are for public school-age students (that apply and meet policy conditions). Click here or visit the school district website to view the up to date list of events and flyers.

Normal Library Check out Process Returns

We are excited to announce that students in grades 2nd - 4th can again shop from the library bookshelves during library check out. This change is due to information from the American Library Association on how long books need to be quarantined and CDC guidelines on how long the virus is active on library materials. 

Mitigation procedures will still be in place to keep your student safe such as students washing  and/or sanitizing their hands before and after shopping. We will continue to quarantine returned library books for the recommended amount of time.

Due to this change, your student will be allowed to check out the following on their library day: 

4th grade-4 books
3rd grade-4 books
2nd grade-3 books 
1st grade - 2 books
K- 1 book
4K-1 book

Reminder: Books are due back the day before checkout, so that your student may check out the full amount of books allotted for their grade level. 

Please contact Ms. Brown, EQ/NDLC School Librarian, if you have any questions.

Late Bus Text/Email Messages: 

On Monday and Tuesday of last week, we had to notify some of district families about a delayed bus route.  Due to the extremely cold temperatures and the need to get the message out as quickly as possible, we elected to use both email and text messages to reach parents so that they could ensure that their child was safe.  Text messages are the quickest way to reach a group of parents.  To get the information out as quickly as possible, we needed to send the message to all parents in the schools these busses serviced, whether their children rode the bus or not, as we don't have mailing lists set up for individual bus routes. Please know that we are working with Kobussen to set up mailing lists for urgent notices like this. As this may take some time, we may need to send additional messages to all until this process is complete. We thank you for your patience as we work to improve our systems.
