Little Rockets News!
Dear Families,
Thank you to all of the families that came to the Neenah Public Library on Saturday for our 4K Outreach event! We had almost 180 people join us for this fun time!
On Wednesday, Tom Pease will be coming to Washington School to perform for our students! Thank you to the PTO for sponsoring this event!
Enrollment for 4K & 5K will take place this week. Please remember that if your child is currently enrolled in 4K, you WILL NOT need re-enroll for Kindergarten (5K). Your child will be automatically assumed to continue with NJSD for Kindergarten.
Reminder, there is NO SCHOOL this week Friday due to our Professional Learning Day.
Please call if you have any questions!
Thank you!
Ms. Stacie Nelson, Principal

Facilities Study for Parents
NJSD Families-
All Neenah Joint School District families are asked to provide input toward a facilities study the District is undergoing in cooperation with Bray Architects.
Bray will be evaluating all of the District's facilities to identify potential improvements that will meet the needs of our students and provide long-term value to the community. The analysis will look at both curriculum needs as well as architectural and engineering needs to develop an independent recommendation of capital projects, renovations and enhancements for the District.
In order to fully understand the needs and desires of our community, Bray seeks input through a brief survey. It is important to note that the survey results will be submitted directly to Bray in order to provide information for its final report this summer.
The link to the survey may be found below and will be available through Feb. 17.

Thank you for your feedback regarding our future facility needs!
