Watertown High School students studying German as a foreign language recently learned about German holiday traditions, traditional German food, and had the fantastic opportunity to attend the Christkindlmarkt in Chicago! As part of these learning experiences, the students presented their research and wrote skits where they made plans to eat at a restaurant, order food, enjoy a friendly conversation, and pay the bill - all in German!
While at the Christkindlmarkt, the students sampled German food and purchased small handcrafted gifts. Enjoy these photos of the German student at the Christkindlmarkt, acting out their skits, and showcasing their traditional gingerbread cookies.
Watertown High School will host Freshman Preview Night for all current area 8th graders on Thursday, Jan. 16. This event is an excellent way to learn more about the high school and its many academic and extracurricular offerings. No need to pre-register, just attend!

Our students and staff had so much fun during the month of December spreading holiday cheer for all to see and hear - Happy Holidays from the Watertown Unified School District! 🎄🎅⭐
Our HOSA students have been busy! Students from Mr. Gibson's Health Observations class recently started their first day of observation rotations. These students (and others not pictured) have the unique opportunity to job shadow medical professionals both at Watertown Regional Medical Center and at local private practices four days a week for nine of the 12 weeks in the trimester. In addition, Health Observations students organized and ran a successful blood drive at Watertown High School, collecting 55 units of blood from both students and members of the community.
Due to the wintry weather and potentially unsafe driving conditions that we are experiencing, all Watertown Unified School District after school activities are canceled today, Thursday, Dec. 19, 2024.
Please stay safe and warm.
