August/September Newsletter

The summer is moving by quickly and it won’t be long before the school bells ring; with the start of the new school year comes some changes to the district, starting with the building project. We will have two additional elementary classrooms, which will be completed and ready to use by late-September and the new Gymnasium which will not be completed until later in the school year. Once the construction is finished the district will have a terrific facility that will meet the academic and extracurricular needs of our students, staff and community. As a new patron of the district, the community support for the facility improvements shows how much pride all of you have in the school and students; it’s a great thing to witness and be a part of and I look forward to working with everyone in the area.

With former Superintendent/HS Principal Easton moving on to Lennox and Mr. Kay enjoying retirement after his long tenure as K-8 Principal, the school district will have new faces in the administration office. With their departure, the various roles were also reassigned: I (Michael Kroll) will be serving as the Superintendent, Transportation Coordinator and Special Education Director; Ms. Lori Enright will serve as the K-12 Principal. I am very excited about this great opportunity and look forward to working with everyone in the community to continue to support the district’s high academic and extracurricular goals.

We have new teaching and support staff this year as well: Jami Heinrich—Junior Kindergarten and Kids Care Coordinator, Brad Heath—Industrial Technology, Meghan Zinter—Elementary PE and Elementary Aide, Heather Scheer—Head Cook. Jordan Russell will be the new Wrestling Coach, and Jesse Cantalope will be assisting the Cross Country team. Please help welcome our new staff to the district; everyone is excited for the start of school and the many changes that accompany the beginning of the year.

The first opportunity for parents and students to meet the teachers and see their rooms will be Tuesday, August 19, 2014 at our back-to-school open house. Please plan on attending, doors are open from 5:00-7:00pm, with classes starting Wednesday, August 20, 2014 at 8:25am.
