Thank you for continuing to find your family\u2019s path to engagement in your child\u2019s learning, whether that is asking about what they are learning, reading or measuring with them, attending school sponsored events, communicating with school, or staying involved in their social practice.\u00a0 It takes a village, and families are a child\u2019s first teachers; your excitement for learning means the world to them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fall is a very exciting time for children, including some of our local traditions, fall sports, music and drama events, and of course, preparations for the holiday season.\u00a0 As we celebrate these important pieces, we can also provide a sense of stability and predictability for children by following our routines and schedules against the backdrop of fall fun.\u00a0 Your child\u2019s teachers and counselors are a great resource for ideas if you need help with this piece.\u00a0 We appreciate your partnership as we all help our students feel ready-to-learn each day!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For November and December, we move on to another Energy Bus tenet: Fuel Your Ride with Positive Energy! Schoolwide we will focus on how positive thinking and communication improve results in our personal and professional lives.<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, fall is also a great time to learn about engagement through our PTO Group, Falcon Families. Our next meeting is Thursday, November 21st from 6:15-7:30 PM in the SFES library.\u00a0 We would love to have you join to learn more and possibly find a new way to engage with our school community.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dear Families,<\/span><\/p>\n

Next week our community will vote on two referendum questions for the School District of Sheboygan Falls. I wanted to take a moment to remind our families and community about our school facility needs and why the Board of Education has decided to propose these two questions as potential solutions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Question #1<\/span><\/strong> asks voters to approve general obligation bonds in an amount not to exceed $78.3 million. These funds would go toward Elementary and High School improvement projects, including:<\/span><\/p>\n
