This past week, eCampus Educators Alexis Hail and Jenna Retzlaff met a Ukrainian mom to discuss her daughters' enrollment into WUSD's eCampus virtual school. Olga Lytvynova shared her story from her family's current home in Poland and is eager to get her 2nd and 5th grader back to school! Our #WatertownWay eCampus Academy staff has partnered with US University Pathways in recent months to enroll international students into eCampus to earn a WUSD diploma and a pathway to a Wisconsin college. Connecting with Olga and her family is an outgrowth of this effort and one that WUSD is pleased and honored to be able to support!
Don't forget to stop at the 29th Annual Children's Day Fair event tomorrow, Saturday, April 23, 2022, at Watertown High School from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. There will be many fun activities for children 8 years of age and younger, and families are able to connect with local organizations and community resources! This is a free event for all attendees. We hope to see you there!
Finally some beautiful weather! ☀️ Our #WatertownWay Webster kindergartens enjoyed this beautiful day by playing a game of soccer ⚽!
Our #WatertownWay Douglas Tigers all helped to complete the Mystery Poster in the Library Media Center. Since the start of the school year, students that returned their library materials were given stickers to add to the poster. They were also given extra stickers when showing responsible, respectful and safe behaviors in the Media Center. Great job!
