Hello Bulldog families,
We are completing our Winter testing this Friday. We use Fastbridge and AimsWeb as our assessment platform for all grades. We use this data to identify areas of strength and areas for growth for our students. As part of our Continuous Improvement work, we will be holding a Data Day meeting on Friday, January 24. During this inservice, we review grade level results, look for trends and develop plans for individual students and for the school as a whole. Knowing that these data sets are a “one-time” measure, we use additional data to best support our students. If you would like more information, please contact your child’s teacher or administration.
We have developed a parent survey to collect your feedback about Washington-Caldwell, your child’s experience and suggestions for improvement. Our goal is to review the survey results to identify the strengths of our district/school, and to address areas in need of improvement or growth. The Parent Survey will be open for two weeks, closing on Sunday, January 19, 2025. We encourage each family to complete the survey. Your voice is important to the success of our students and school. If you have any questions about the Parent Survey, please contact the school at 262-662-3466. Thank you!
Bulldog Basketball is officially here for our students in grades 2-5. We plan on beginning the season(practices) the week of January 27, 2025. The number of teams, practice and game schedules are dependent upon the number of students registering to participate. Our plan is to have co-ed teams consisting of students in grades 2 & 3 and teams of students in grades 4 & 5.
This is open to all area students, not just Washington-Caldwell students. Please share this with your friends and family that may be interested
The cost for participation is $50 per child. This may be paid by check/cash or via E-funds on our school website. Checks may be made out to Washington-Caldwell. This will cover the cost of referees and awards at season’s end. I am sharing a link to a Jotform for registration. If you have Registration will close on Sunday, January 19.

The students of the Washington Caldwell chapter of the National Junior Honor Society recycle used printer cartridges. All you have to do is send printer cartridges to school, and the students take care of the rest. Help keep these items out of landfills.
