From the Desk of Ms. Costello
We will return to school on Tuesday, April 2nd and will be ready for the last 9 weeks of the school year. April will bring our Earth Day celebration, Art Show, Trivia Night, Band Concert and more. We look forward to celebrating the Easter season (which extends beyond Easter) and Spring with all of you.
And remember- no after school program tomorrow. Thanks for your patience in a longer carline.

Book Fair Update!
A huge thanks to our dedicated volunteers and to all of you who came and bought books at the Spring Bookfair! We reached our goal of over 200 books donated to classrooms, so look out for Mr. Wiese's new hair style the week after spring break! Your purchases at the bookfair also translate to nearly $3000 raised to support literacy in our classrooms. Thank You!
Community Events
Welcome to the Hamilton Education Program which is free and open to students grades 6-12 anywhere, whether learning at home with their family or under the supervision of a teacher at school. Please register or log in to access the content.
Participating students are eligible for our national competition and lottery—now open for 2024 submissions.
Here are the details:
We will select a total of 20 winners—10 chosen by our judging panel and 10 chosen via lottery.
Winners will be invited to New York City for an all-expenses-paid trip, including a performance of Hamilton, in spring 2025.
- The competition and lottery are open to students in grades 6–12.
- Creative pieces for participating students can be submitted by teachers or parents.
- All participating students are eligible for the lottery (note: submissions that do not win one of the competition slots will also be added to the lottery).
NICA (National Interscholastic Cycling Association) is a school-affiliated fall sport for athletes entering 6th through senior year in high school. The season runs mid-July through October 20, with up to 5 race weekends across Wisconsin. Racing is optional; trying at least one is encouraged. Race waves include Varsity, JV, Freshman, and individual classes 6-8 with separate male/female.
There are also non-race activities: 2 practices/week, occasional organized “adventure rides”, Girls Riding Together (GRiT), & trail building.
All practices & race pre-rides are led by level 2 or 3 coaches (child protection, concussion, MTB skills trained). ALL parents are welcome and encouraged to participate as Level 1 coaches (online child protection, concussion training, basic coaching). Level 1 coaches mainly ride along during practice and help Level 2 & 3 coaches keep everyone together. The kids learn FAST, so if you’re a “beginner” parent, becoming a Level 1 coach is a GREAT way to improve along with your kids.
If you are interested or want to learn more about mountain biking, please reach out to ECS parent & NICA coach Paul Juckem at pjuckem@gmail.com or visit some of the websites below!
