Welcome Back Letter from the Principal
Dear Kewaskum Families,
As the new school year approaches, I want to extend a heartfelt welcome to each of you. Summer has been a time for rest and rejuvenation, but we are now excited to welcome back our students, teachers, and staff. There’s a special energy in our school when it’s filled with the enthusiasm and curiosity of our students, and we’ve missed it!
This year, our focus will be on fostering a positive and enriching CULTURE within our school community. We believe that a vibrant and supportive environment is key to both academic success and personal growth. By working together—students, families, and staff—we can create an atmosphere where everyone feels valued, motivated, and eager to learn.
We’re committed to making this a fantastic year filled with opportunities for growth and achievement. As we embark on this journey, we encourage open communication and partnership. If you have any questions or need support, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Thank you for your continued support and involvement. Let’s make this school year one of our best yet!
Warm regards,
Kevin Bryant
Principal
Kewaskum School District

Attendance
Kewaskum High School is committed to fostering academic achievement and success for all our students. A crucial factor in this success is regular school attendance. Consistent attendance not only enhances academic performance but also supports overall student growth.
We encourage all students to be on time and present every day. Please review pages 3-5 of the student handbook for important information about attendance policies, including details on excused and unexcused absences. We understand that students may need to miss school for various reasons. If your student will be absent, please call the attendance line at (262) 626-3105 to notify us by 8:00 AM.
Your cooperation in ensuring timely attendance helps us support your student’s educational journey effectively. Thank you for your partnership!
Cell Phone Policy
We’d like to take a moment to remind everyone about Kewaskum High School's cell phone policy. All cell phones should be turned off and stored in lockers from 7:30 AM to 2:45 PM. Students may check their phones at their lockers during passing periods, but phone use is not permitted during lunch.
By limiting cell phone usage during school hours, we aim to create a more focused and productive learning environment. We appreciate you supporting this policy. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out.
Thank you for your cooperation.
