Wisconsin Virtual Learning is proud to announce that Mariah Broman has been awarded a National Honor Society scholarship for $3,200.
Mariah was selected from more than 11,000 applicants to receive this scholarship because she has not only demonstrated a strong and consistent reputation for academic excellence, but also exemplified the development of important personal attributes, namely the four pillars of NHS: scholarship, leadership, service, and character.
Please acknowledge Mariah for the hard work, effort, dedication, and commitment that has led to such an amazing achievement. Congratulations!
Our Wonderful Learners <OWL> Awards for March!
School Yearbook Pictures
We are working on creating this year's yearbook and we need your help. Specifically, if you would like your child to be included in the yearbook, we need a headshot of your student. We would like these pictures by Wednesday, April 17. In addition, we need candids. If you attended a WVL field trip this year and have photos to share, please forward them to us.
Send your headshots and your candids to Michele Scacco mscacco@nosd.edu and Trina Michalsen cmichalsen@nosd.edu. Please include your student's name and grade level in the subject line.
Thank you in advance for your help with this project.
ATTENTION HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ONLY:
2019/20 Open Enrollment
The open enrollment period is now open! Open Enrollment opened Monday, February 4th and will run through 4:00pm on Friday, April 30th, 2019. Open enrollment is a time that families, in the state of WI, can enroll out of their resident district, and into a district of their choosing. This is also the time of year that we, as a school, are starting to look at enrollment for next year and make plans for classes, staffing and opportunities for the WVL community.
If you are planning on staying with WVL, you do NOT need to fill out open enrollment paperwork. You are good to go- and there is nothing more to do but let us know you are staying with us. Please complete this short survey letting us know your intentions for next year.
If you have a child that will be new to WVL, you DO need to fill out open enrollment paperwork for them.
Are you moving or do you plan to move in the future?
Thank you for your cooperation!
