Prep for BizTown Experience
Our grade five students have been busy with interviewing for their three top choices for jobs at BizTown. Many thanks to area professionals who came in and helped with interviews. Our 2020 Mayor and DJ candidates gave their speeches to the entire fifth grade. They all did such a great job and are very much looking forward to their field trip to BizTown in April.
Share Your Voice on Special Education in WI
 
March 2 – 6, 2020 is online public forum commenting. The forum gives Council members the opportunity to gather input from families and school staff on the unique challenges and successes of special education in Wisconsin. The Council uses the information gathered to advise the State Superintendent on matters affecting the education of Wisconsin’s children and youth with disabilities. If you would like to participate, provide your comment in English or Spanish March 2 – 6, 2020.
How Tall Can You Build?
Students in eighth grade Science collaborate and try different designs to build the tallest house of cards. Students find patterns to understand how forces like gravity and friction affect freestanding structures.
They Grow Up So Fast … 2020 Census Reminder
 
REMINDER:
2020 is a census year. Please see more information HERE.
Food Service Account Restrictions
Students are able to purchase extras in addition to their regular breakfast or lunch. These extras may include a second entree, milk, juice or other snacks. We recognize that not all families wish to allow their students to make those extra purchases. You may contact the Food Service department at 920-550-5893 to request that restrictions be placed on your student’s account. Please communicate these restrictions to your student(s) so that they know your expectations. Purchases made by students will result in charges to their food service account. If your student attempts to make a purchase, the food service staff will remind the student of your restriction. The food service staff will do their best to monitor parental restriction requests; however, if a sale is made you are responsible for payment.

Notice to Parents Moving out of the District
If you are anticipating a move or moving out of the Sheboygan Falls District during the current school year, your student can continue attending school in Sheboygan Falls. Please contact your building office, or the district office, to receive DPI Form PI-9419-B – Request for Tuition Waiver Due to Move, for the remainder of the 2019-2020 school year. Completion of this form will enable your child to continue attending school in the Sheboygan Falls District even though you no longer live within the District boundaries for the remainder of this school year. An open enrollment application or alternate open enrollment application will then need to be completed for the 2020-2021 school year and beyond. Please call Julie Hahn at 467-7893 if you have any questions regarding tuition waivers or open enrollment.
