Watertown High School FFA students recently hosted the annual "Day on the Farm" where elementary school students come to the high school to learn about animals and farming. During the event, the younger students had the opportunity to pet sheep and rabbits, watch a drone sprayer in action, view tractors, ask questions of the high schoolers and more. It was a beautiful, sunny day for outdoor learning. 🐑🐇🌽

Webster Elementary School 4th graders experienced the pioneer days of our state first hand last week during their field trip to Old World Wisconsin. They spent time in a one-room schoolhouse, learned about blacksmithing, viewed early wagons, played old-fashioned yard games, and more.
🚌 National School Bus Safety Week - October 20-24, 2025
Thank you to our dedicated school bus drivers for transporting our students to sporting events, on field trips, and to and from school safely every day. Thank you also to our community members for practicing safe driving habits around school busses. Always remember:
⚠ Yellow flashing lights mean a school bus is preparing to stop - drivers slow down.
🛑 Red flashing lights and stop arm extended mean students are boarding or exiting the bus - drivers must stop completely and wait until the flashing lights turn off and the stop arm is no longer extended before continuing on their way.
By slowing down and staying alert, we all work together to protect our kids!

Webster Wildcats wish to thank Koplin Excavating for their donation of top soil and Ebert's Greenhouse Village for their donation of beautiful flowers to make the Webster Elementary School garden gorgeous this summer! Last spring, third graders at Webster planted zinnia seeds, shoveled the top soil into the raised beds, and made this garden come to life! Pollinators visited the flowers all summer, and Wildcat families have enjoyed the color and beauty added to this corner of the school! Way to go, Wildcats!
