Weather Make-up

As was mentioned previously, we had to make some adjustments to our day to meet the state standards for minutes required due to the weather cancellations we have had.  The first adjustment is that we will attend school on Monday, April 22. The second was to add about seven minutes to each day. Below is the bell schedule that we will use for the remainder of the school year to add these minutes.  Time is added before and after school as well as taking a few minutes from lunch and breakfast break..

Human Trafficking: How to keep and communities safe:

On Tuesday, April 16th at 7:00pm in the Endries PAC at Brillion High School, a presentation will be given about human trafficking.  The presentation is free and open to the public (Ages 14 and older recommended) Join us for pizza at 6:30 pm!

Officer Ben Bastian and Tamara Remington, Sheboygan Police Department Detective, will discuss causes, trends, look-for signals, and safety/prevention tips to keep our communities and kids safe.

DID YOU KNOW

Wisconsin's human trafficking cases are one of the highest in the US.

All 72 counties have reported cases

Victims range from infant to elderly

Victims are made up of all backgrounds, races, and cultures

FR-SO Testing

April is testing month for freshmen and sophomores.  On Tuesday, April 2 sophomores will be taking the Forward test in the area of Social Studies.  On April 10 and 17, the freshmen and sophomores will be taking the Aspire test during the afternoon.  This is a required state test in the areas of English, Math, Reading, Science and Writing. Students scores give us an indication of student achievement.  Scores also are used by the state to analyze student growth and will be part of our schools report card next fall. We encourage your assistance in trying to avoid appointments during these times as well as encouraging your sons and daughters to do their best.

JR-SR Activities:

On the afternoons that the freshmen and sophomores do their Aspire tests, the juniors and seniors will be participating in activities as well. On April 10, they will be attending a career fair/expo and is focusing on Calumet County.  The inaugural event will be held at FVTC in Chilton. The portion for the seniors will focus on job opportunities for long term and summer employment. The juniors will participate in the career exploration portion of the event.

On April 17, we are again fortunate to have a presentation from the Appleton chapter of the Vietnam Veterans of America here to present to our juniors and seniors.  They came two years ago and they shared their experiences as well as have a display of memorabilia to share with our students. Students will also hear a presentation that afternoon about school systems in Thailand and Holland.  

Spring Sport Cancellations

The beautiful spring weather in Wisconsin always makes spring sports an adventure.  One of the challenges is the cancellation of events due to the weather. Keep yourself informed on cancellations by signing up for notification in the district RSchool account.  Here is a link to the account. On the right hand side below the calendar, click on the "notify me" tab and it will walk you through how to sign up for notifications. As soon as a decision is made about the game, Mr. Capelle if it is a home game or the hosting school will send the notification through. This will allow you to be immediately informed without having to contact anyone else.
