Health Office Staff

We have a everyday health aide in the Health Office.  Dawn Teesch will be in our Health Office everyday to assist with student/staff health needs.  Many students may be familiar with seeing Mrs. Teesch as she was our regular back-up Health Aide and an NDLC 4K EA and lunch supervisor for EQ.  Congratulations Mrs. Teesch!  Our lunch coverage Health Aide over the lunch hours will be Mrs. Lis Vanderaa!

Mrs. Geoffrey is now working at District Office as an Administrative Assistant in Special Education/Receptionist.  We will miss Mrs. Geoffrey very much!  She was a great help in keeping our school running and helping students muscle through the day!  Congratulations Mrs. Geoffrey! 

NEW CHANGE: ONE Entree for Hot Lunch

Due to staffing shortages within Chartwells there will be a temporary change to a single entree for hot lunch at all elementary sites effective Monday, October 4, 2021.  A modified lunch menu will be available soon and posted.  Once the staffing shortages are controlled the plan is to go back to two entree options daily.  This message has also been posted on the District's website and social media outlets.  Thanks for your understanding in this matter.

It's Fire Prevention Week!  Practice your fire evacuation plans as a family at home.

Picture Re-Take Day - Oct. 6

This week Network Photography will be at EQ/NDLC on Wednesday, Oct. 6th to take school pictures for those that were unable to be at the August picture dates and will be taking retakes as well.  They share the information below to help families know what is needed in each case.   

STUDENTS THAT WERE NOT PHOTOGRAPHED IN AUGUST:

If students have not been photographed this school year, please be prepared to have a photograph taken on re-take day.  All students must be photographed.  Portraits will be needed for your school’s database.

STUDENTS THAT WOULD LIKE RE-TAKE PHOTOS:

If you want a re-take of your student’s original portrait, please return the original package in its entirety to the photographer on re-take day.  A replacement package will be printed and delivered to the school with your student’s new image.  If you did not purchase photos from the original picture day and want a re-take, please have the student’s picture taken.

STUDENTS WHO WANT TO ORDER SCHOOL PICTURES FOR THE FIRST TIME:

If you would like to order school pictures for the first time, you can print and use the order form .pdf that is attached or obtain one from the school office.  Just fill out the order form and bring it with you to re-take day.

STUDENTS WHO DID NOT ORDER SCHOOL PICTURES AND WOULD LIKE TO ORDER AT A LATER TIME:

If you do not order your student’s portrait on re-take day, you will still be able to order online for the entire school year.  Approximately 3 weeks after the portrait is taken your student will bring home a proof form with their own secure private gallery password.  Online orders get mailed directly to your home and will include a shipping charge of $4.50.

DELIVERY OF RE-TAKE PORTRAITS:

Re-take photos will be delivered to the school approximately three weeks after the re-take day.

October is Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drug Abuse Awareness (ATODA) month.  October 25th thru October 27th is National Red Ribbon Week…a week dedicated to celebrating a healthy and drug free life.  Kaukauna Elementary Schools have some activities planned during the month to promote awareness.  The following is a list of dates and activities planned at school:

  • 4K-4 Students will learn about keeping their bodies healthy and drug free during their developmental guidance lessons with their School Counselor!


Dress up Days: Monday, October 25th-Wednesday, October 27th

  • Monday, October 25th “Teaming Up Against Drugs is NO SWEAT!” -- Wear your favorite Sweats and/or Team Apparel!

  • Tuesday, October 26th “Stay United Against Drugs” -- Wear Red White and Blue!

  • Wednesday, October 27th “Say BOO to Drugs” -- “Drugs are scary...be drug free!” Wear your ghost gear 


Talk with your kids to build healthy and safe habits for a lifetime: Small talks are short, casual conversations that help you connect with your child on the important stuff, like underage drinking. Having lots of small talks over time helps build trust and set expectations as kids change and grow.

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.
