That Big Bad Wolf 🐺 will huff... 💨 And he’ll puff... 💨 And he’ll blow your house down! 💨🏠
Kindergarten architects used gumdrops and toothpicks in a fun STEM activity. The goal was to build a house so strong that it would stay upright and keep Little Pig safe inside once the Big Bad Wolf (a hairdryer) came to huff and puff and blow their house down! 🤣💨🏠🐷🐺
Great job kindergarteners! 👍💪👷🏼

Showdown at the Shoe!!
Wisconsin School Board Week is October 2-8!
School board service begins when a community member wants to help children in their public schools reach their potential.
These community members bring different backgrounds, interests, and passions to their board service, but they share a belief that all their students can achieve.
This conviction — “We believe all our students can achieve” — is this year's theme for Wisconsin School Board Week.
This core belief motivates everything school boards do from overseeing multimillion dollar budgets, to advocating for schools at the local, state, and federal levels. School board members work to ensure that each student in their community receives a world-class education that nurtures their talents and unlocks opportunities.
Public schools are the heart of our communities and our democracy, ensuring that every child has an opportunity to succeed. To oversee this important work and provide accountability for how taxpayer dollars are spent, local communities elect school board members to govern public education.
Just as teachers advance student learning from the classroom, school boards work from the boardroom. Effective schools start with effective school boards.
School board service, never simple or easy, is being tested in new ways. School board members welcome feedback from their communities. Public input is most effective when it recognizes the common mission of citizens and school board members.
Throughout the year, locally elected board members devote a significant amount of their time and energy to our public schools because they believe in the importance of strengthening our students and our communities. In addition to attending meetings, they spend countless hours preparing for meetings, studying issues, and participating in professional development.
Please join us in recognizing Terry Lemkuil, Jim Swart, Rick Hartman, Jack Stokdyk, Deb Harmeling, Wendy DenBoer, and Mari Kretz. We extend our gratitude and appreciation to each of you for your leadership, and public service during Wisconsin School Board Week, Oct. 2-8.
