SFHS Falconer – May 26, 2021

 

May 26, 2021
Dear SFHS Falcon Families,
 
As our school year winds down, I would like to thank everyone for their patience and diligence. Our entire school community – students, parents, and staff – have come together and worked hard to endure the obstacles of this year. Despite the challenges, our students accomplished many great things academically, athletically and artistically. The entire staff at SFHS is very proud of all the achievements and accomplishments of our students. It would not be possible without your support and dedication, and we can’t thank everyone enough for your countless hours of volunteering, organizing, donating and doing whatever was necessary to support our students—both at home and at school.  
 
In closing, I take this opportunity to congratulate all students of SFHS! Best wishes to our graduating seniors, whom we will truly miss. I wish you all a very happy, safe and enjoyable summer.
 
Go Falcons!

Parent Survey 
Please take a few minutes to complete this brief survey regarding the 2020-2021 school year. Your feedback is important to us as it will assist in planning to support students and families next school year. Please complete one survey per child as we understand that your feedback may vary between teachers, grade levels, and schools. Note that your responses will be anonymous unless you include your name for follow-up assistance.
 
On-Line Registration
Similar to last summer, we will continue to use On-Line Registration (OLR) through our student software program Infinite Campus for our 2021-2022 school year registration process. This will allow you to complete the registration process entirely online. School photos will be taken during the first few weeks of school. 
 
A reminder will be sent in early July, as the On-Line Registration process will open on July 8 and can be accessed at the school district website at www.sheboyganfalls.k12.wi.us/register. Follow the registration link to access your Infinite Campus Parent Portal account using your login and password. If you do not have a parent portal user account set up, please contact any of the three school offices via email for assistance ASAP.  
 
Important information about continued free lunches and free/reduced lunch applications can be found HERE.

Additional Human Growth & Development
Advisory Committee Meeting Planned for June 9
Wisconsin Statute 118.019 states that school districts that offer human growth and development must have an advisory committee appointed by the school board and composed of parents, teachers, school administrators, pupils, health care professionals, members of the clergy and other residents of the school district to advise on the design and implementation of the human growth and development curriculum and to review the curriculum. Although not included in the current statute, to keep the Human Growth and Development curriculum current, a regular review of the curriculum is recommended at least every three years.
Community and staff members are invited to the advisory meeting on June 9, 2021, from 5:30 to 6:30 pm in the library at Sheboygan Falls High School.
 
Community and staff members interested in participating should contact Director of Instruction Mary Lofy Blahnik at District Office 920-467-7893 or email [email protected] .
