Students of Sauk Prairie High School recently competed in CyberPatriot, a National Youth Cyber Defense Competition that has them act as if they are IT professionals working to fix networking breaches and protect a company from technology threats.

The elements did not stop Sauk Prairie Middle School students from getting outside. Braving cold and near-whiteout conditions, the students got out of the classroom for a bit.

Conversations about returning students back to Sauk Prairie School District have begun in earnest, as Superintendent Jeff Wright presented the board with a board overview at the February 8 meeting. Wright also included a copious amount of data about COVID-19 infections and schools.

The Wisconsin Heights School District will be presenting residents with another referendum in the spring election. In the wake of a $27 million facilities referendum in the fall, the District has decided to go forward with the question of a $7.5 million auditorium project.

The Sauk Prairie School District reviewed six months of teaching through the pandemic at their meeting last week.

Highlights include:

The fate of a new auditorium will be known--in part--next week at the Wisconsin Heights School Board meeting. At their January 25 meeting, the board will decide if a $7.5 million auditorium project will appear on the April ballot.

“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.”

“Let’s let it play out.”

Those were the words of Gary Damaschke at the Wisconsin Heights December 21 meeting on the topic of how involved the board should get when it came to design for the renovated and expanded building.

‘Tis the season to spread cheer! Students at Merrimac Community School made holiday cards for local veterans. The cards included personal messages, thanks, and happy holiday wishes.  Pictured is Elwood Voelker.
