NJSD COVID-19 Testing Center Changes
From November 28 through December 23, all COVID-19 testing will be done at Neenah High School on Monday through Friday from 8-10:45 a.m. All testing will continue to be done on a walk-in basis and no appointments will be taken.
Beginning January 2, NJSD will no longer offer on-site COVID-19 testing. Students and staff are encouraged to use community testing sites or antigen home testing kits to identify cases of COVID-19. NJSD will provide antigen home testing kits at no cost to students and staff who request them through their school’s health office.
Though we are providing these tests to students and staff, testing will not be conducted at any of our schools. NJSD staff will not administer the tests nor will they interpret the results. Antigen home test kids should be administered in the student’s or staff member’s home. It is important that positive results of these tests are reported to the office of the school where the child attends.
Facilities Transition FAQ Document Developed
A Frequently Asked Questions document has been developed to help answer questions about the task of moving classrooms for the 2023-24 school year at most levels. This document will continue to be updated throughout the school year. We ask that if you have questions regarding the transition to new facilities, you please reach out to a member of our Elementary and/or Secondary Cross the Line teams. They will bring these questions to our monthly meetings to be updated on the Frequently Asked Questions document.
The elementary members of the Cross the Line teams are: Deb Rosera, Jadee Gavin, Bri Hankemeier, Sarah Tennie, Erin Ermis, Sarah Broda, Robyn Hall, Gina Connor, Kaelyn Altmann, Kassandra Beno, Michelle Robb, Kayla Plante, Alisia Myers and Emily Zompolas.

Health and Wellness Center Provides Vitamin D Advice
From Prevea Nurse Practitioner Sarah Bleier, APNP, FNP-C
In the past few years, vitamin D has really made its way into the forefront of our minds. It started with the idea that taking vitamin D could reduce the risk of severe COVID. Vitamin D is available through dietary intake and through sunlight exposure. If adequate vitamin D can’t be taken in through diet and sunlight, a supplement can help. Click here to read more

Associated Bank Retirement Website and App Changes
Associated Bank is excited to share with you enhancements to their websites for plan participants. With the update to the participant website, their new mobile app will become available.
Associated Bank is now leveraging Schwab Retirement Technologies for two-step verification (2SV)—in place of our current vendor, Okta. This will provide an improved user experience for participants and eliminate the 7-day activation period.
This change is going to require participants to establish new sign-in credentials for accessing their account online. Participants were notified of this requirement on November 4.
With Associated Retirement Online, participants can check account balances, portfolio performance and recent transactions, manage future investment elections, research investment performance and log in conveniently and securely using biometrics (fingerprint or facial recognition).
