Thank you for your support at the restaurant nights we have had this year and the Culver's card fundraiser. We appreciate you making the effort to participate in those events when it works for your family. We have had great success...
Tom’s on Oct. 25th - $182.47
Chipotle on Jan. 16th - $320.56
Culver’s Curds and Custard Cards - $7,940
Your participation and support have played an important role in what we are able to provide for students and our school's success—thank you. At the March PAC meeting we approved a teacher request from Evan Guell, PE Teacher to purchase of two Gaga Pits to be installed this summer on the playground in combination with the NDLC PSC.
Gaga is similar to dodgeball, with players being eliminated if they’re struck by the ball. But Gaga prohibits any strikes above the waist and requires attacking players to hit the ball with their hand, rather than throw it at opponents. Our students will be thrilled to have another activity to play with on the blacktop when the fall and spring days bring us a playground field that is too wet to play in. Thanks again for your support which helps us bring opportunities such as this to school for our students!
Wisconsin Forward Exam Testing
Each spring our students in grades 3 & 4 participate in the WI Forward Exam testing. The WI Forward Exam will begin this week and continue through April 28.
Tips for Parents
1. Make sure your child gets plenty of rest the night before test sessions.
2. On the morning of the test sessions, your child needs to get up in plenty of time so he/she won't feel rushed.
3. Feed your child a good breakfast. Research shows that children do better on tests if they have had a good breakfast.
4. Do as much as you can to make your child feel comfortable. Try not to say things to make him/her feel more nervous.
5. Reassure your child that no matter the outcome of the test you will still love him/her. Encourage them to simply do their best.

Families should "sign-up" for a time either way so that you can have an uninterrupted time with your child's teacher.

Once you have chosen the correct tab for the classroom/teacher, click Sign-Up next to the time you prefer from the available slots and then click Submit and Sign-up at the bottom of the page. This will bring up a box that will ask you for your student's name. You are not required to enter your email address or sign up for an account with Sign-Up Genius. However, if you do enter your e-mail information you will receive a reminder 1 day prior to the conference date. If you already have a Sign-Up Genius account, make that choice and enter your login information. *Please note that some parent student teacher conferences have already been scheduled with a teacher/specialist. If your child's teacher already called/e-mailed you to schedule a conference, disregard this message as our conference will already be held/listed on the site.
