From the Desk of Ellen Knippel, Principal
Dear Parents,
It is that time of year when teacher contracts have been given and our faculty decides whether they will be returning next year. This year we say good-bye to two faculty members; Mrs. Baggott, our 5K teacher, has decided to take some time off to be a new Mom (Baby Baggott is due in May), and Mrs. Krahn, our 4th grade teacher, will also be moving on to new adventures! We wish both of these ladies the best of luck and blessings as they move on to other opportunities and stages in their lives!
Blessings to all,
Mrs. Knippel

Read the labels at each
purchase! Manufacturing processes change!
 Avoid items with allergy and ingredient alerts such as: "May Contain Peanut or Tree Nuts" "Processed on shared equipment with Peanuts or Tree Nuts" "Manufactured in a plant with Peanut or Tree Nuts" "Contains Peanut or Tree Nut Ingredients" Your diligence is keeping an allergic child safe at school.

Grade 4 enjoyed outstanding guided tours at both the Capitol building and the Wisconsin Historical Museum where they connected what they have been learning in class about the history of Wisconsin. Lunch at Culver's after the tours was a highlight!!
3K let their imaginations go and pretended to be artists with the help of aprons and berets.
