WGSD is now enrolling for the 2020-2021 school year. This is for NEW students entering our district. Any student that is currently attending a Waterford Graded Elementary school DOES NOT need to enroll for the next school year as a NEW STUDENT. All parents/guardians will be required to review your student’s data in August during our Skyward Family Access Online-Registration. Any family who knows a student will not be returning for the next school year should notify your school secretary.
During the week of February 10-14, WSGD schools participated in the "Our Community Cares" initiative. Student leadership groups at all four schools partnered with WUHS, the Chamber of Commerce, and other community agencies to collect clothing and other essentials. These items will be used to help local families through family resource rooms at each WGSD school and through donations to Love Inc.
Evergreen students have the opportunity to donate their Eagle Bucks to purchase items in the Eagle Store for kids in other countries. Some items that will be sent to the kids are pencils, erasers, rulers, writing tablets and pencil sharpeners! Way to go Evergreen!
Congratulations to all of our WGSD students that competed in the Regional Math 24 tournament at Washington Caldwell. WGSD had students place in all four levels!
Keeping with the theme this week, “Our Community Cares”, staff members from Evergreen Elementary volunteered at different Love Inc. locations. The experience was wonderful.

CONGRATULATIONS to all of our students that competed in the MATH 24 competition earlier this week and to 6 of our students that have qualified for the Regional Math 24 Meet at Washington Caldwell on Wednesday, February 5. Math 24 is a mental math card game in which participants use the four numbers on the card, and any combination of addition, subtraction, multiplication or division, to arrive at a solution of 24. The top six competitors from each elementary school are invited the district tournament, where they compete against students from the other schools for the six spots at the regional tournament.
Evergreen has received their certificate from the Wisconsin DNR certifying that their adopted nest is located in Tichigan. They also received an aerial map of the nests location.
Happy National Eagle Day! In observance of National Eagle Day, Evergreen Elementary has adopted an eagle nest through the Wisconsin DNR. Once received we will share an aerial photo of our eagle nest.
Dear Families-We are so excited to report to you about the success of Secret Santa's Holiday Shop! The Eagle Leaders took time during their recess and after school to decorate the STEAM lab. We had volunteers sign up to help at the last minute! All shoppers had fun purchasing surprises for their loved ones.
We would like to thank the Eagle Leaders for doing an excellent job, being festive, and getting great compliments from teachers and parents about how helpful they were.
We would also like to take the time to thank our parent/student volunteers! Without your help, we could not have done it without all of you!
Merry Christmas and thank you again! PBIS Team

The way that you find the monthly menus on our website has changed. The menus will no longer be pushed out through Facebook, but will be available on either the district or specific school site.
To locate the menus you will need to select "Menu" at the top of the page, then select "For Parents" and click on "Food Service". This is a direct link to all school menus. You will also be able to see calorie and allergy information. Paper menus will still be available at your child's school.
