Literacy (aimsweb) and Math (iReady) reports with a letter from the School District of Waukesha are going home with your student today, check their backpacks!

The crossing guard formerly stationed at Sunset and East Ave has been moved to East Ave and Hoover. She will be stationed on the school side of East Ave and cross pedestrians to the non school side. Note she does not control the crosswalk crossing Hoover, only across East.

Just a reminder that students should not be dropped off before 7:40 am unless they are entering for breakfast at 7:30 am. We have had a large number of students in the lobby or outside between 7:30 am and 7:40 am and there is no staff supervision at this time. Thank you for helping keep our STEM Community safe!

Please see the flyer below for your invitation to Skateland! On February 6th, from 6-8PM, we will be rolling our way to raise funds for the annual 5th Grade Celebration. All STEM families (and extended families, friends, co-workers, and neighbors) are invited to join in the fun!

$10 CASH for each skater (includes skates) must be paid at the door, and half of that $$$ is returned to our 5th Grade Celebration fund. There will be concessions as well. All children must be supervised by their adults.

We are pleased to offer our STEMShare program to families who need it. STEMShare provides healthy, kid-friendly foods to participating students at the end of each school week. We are kicking off our 2nd Semester STEMShare Stock Up! Our goal is 2000 individual items from the list below. If we meet our goal, free popsicles at Move Night! Items listed below can be dropped off in the lobby. Please label items with your students' teacher name: The class that collects the most items will win an extra recess- winner will be announced at Movie Night! (Please do not bring items not listed below: We have plenty of everything not listed here and don't want to have a surplus at the end of the year as many items have expiration dates)
