What a beautiful day for a walk! Our 1st grade students took a walk over to the Ozaukee Food Alliance to learn what it does for our community. They were shown the fresh vegetables that are grown there, and even had time for a little snack.
Our elementary students had a great time learning important fire safety tips and meeting some of the local heroes who help keep our community safe.
A huge thank you to our local firefighters for visiting our schools, sharing their knowledge, and helping our students learn what to do in an emergency. We are so grateful for the time, care, and commitment you give to our students and community!

What a great start to Homecoming week!! Monday was Twin Day!
A teacher can be the person who sees a student’s potential before they see it themselves. The person who offers encouragement on a hard day, celebrates the small victories, sparks a love of learning, and leaves a lasting impact that reaches far beyond the classroom.
This World Teachers’ Day, we are celebrating every teacher across PWSSD who shows up each day with heart, purpose, patience, and a belief in our students.
To our teachers, thank you for believing in our students, investing in their futures, and being such an important part of their journey!
