Staff Celebrations

Take a moment to send warm wishes to Diana via e-mail as she began her work at District Office as an Administrative Assistant in Special Education.  If you visit District Office you will see Diana in the main reception area as you enter the office.  We wish you well Diana!  Our school has been blessed to have your caring ways and enduring efforts in the health office all these years!!!  You will be missed!

Dawn Teesch started in the Health Office Educational Assistant position last week and has had great days so far!  Thank you for your patience and understanding as Dawn becomes even more familiar to this new role.  Lisa Vanderaa will provide the lunch coverage support in the Health Office at around the 11:00 time.  Thank you Dawn and Lisa for joining these roles.  We are fortunate to have you working with us in these roles at the building!

Send your congratulations also to Kenny and Kelly Halloran who welcomed their third daughter on September 24th.  Molly weighed 7 lbs. 13 oz.  Mom and Molly are doing well.  Welcome to the world Molly!!!

 

FIRE PREVENTION WEEK 

National Fire Prevention week is this week.  You should have received your classroom materials courtesy of the Fire Department last week.  You can find information including games to share with students on the website...https://www.nfpa.org/Events/Events/Fire-Prevention-Week/Educate.  If you click here, there are videos you can use when you share the materials with students. 

Wisconsin School Board Week

Send a positive thought or cheer from students to the Board of Education this week as we recognize Wisconsin School Board Week (boe@kaukaunasd.org).  Their support is so very valuable for our schools and knowing our appreciation goes a long way as well!  Thank you!  https://www.kaukauna.k12.wi.us/district/boardofeducation.cfm

Talk with your kids to build healthy and safe habits for a lifetime: Small talks are short, casual conversations that help you connect with your child on the important stuff, like underage drinking. Having lots of small talks over time helps build trust and set expectations as kids change and grow.

Inspiration of the Week EQ

Student conversation from 3-K -

Student 1 - Why don't you have a superhero costume on? (to Mr. K)

Student 2 - He doesn't need a costume because all of the teachers at Quinney are Superheros!
