Mrs. Diderrich's #WatertownWay K/1 class at Lincoln STEM had a guest reader during Homecoming Week this week - Reece, the junior quarterback for the Watertown Goslings! He read a book to the students and then answered all of their questions about school and football. Thank you, Reece, and Go Goslings!
Congrats to these #WatertownWay Schurz Tigers for being a RAINBOW OF POSSIBILITIES the past two weeks at Schurz!
"Double double this this, double double that that!" Our #WatertownWay Mrs. Jensen and Douglas 3rd Grade Tigers played one of our new Playworks favorites!
These #WatertownWay students were "exploring cave art" by candle light. This hands-on activity was used to show how cave art helped to reveal the culture of early humans. Students had to think of images that would represent our current American to future archaeologists.
These #WatertownWay Goslings are using some "vintage 😉" National Geographic maps to find coordinates and then research the history and geography of the location they find!
On Thursday, Mrs. Diderrich's #WatertownWay K/1 class at Lincoln Stem celebrated International Dot Day. Students dressed up in dots, read the book The Dot, did a STEM challenge with dot circles and created their own masterpieces using dots. How fun! 🔴 🟢 🔵

These #WatertownWay Douglas Tigers used their creative minds to build a "monster" out of the weeds they pulled from the playground woodchip area. What a great way to have fun while working hard to keep the playground a nice space to play!

The WUSD Nutrition Services Department wanted to update families on the status of the automated phone messages that families should be receiving for low or negative student meal account balances. The WUSD has transitioned to a new vendor and we are working through the set-up process in order for families to start receiving account balance notifications. We anticipate that this process will be complete by the end of next week.
While we have not yet been able to successfully send out the automated calls, we have been utilizing e-mail to send out notices to families in the interim. Please keep an eye out for these communications in order to avoid any disruption in meal service for your student. Parents and guardians also have the ability to enable automated low balance e-mail notifications via Skyward Family Access by clicking on “My Account” in the upper right of the screen and going to “Email Notifications” in Account Settings. Click the box next to ”Receive Notifications when Food Service Balance is under $5.00” and select the email radio button and click “Save” in the top left of screen to enable.
As always, if you have any questions regarding your student’s current balance, purchase or payment history, do not hesitate to contact Nutrition Services at (920)262-7536.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to resolve this issue.
