Forward Exam
This spring all public school students in grades 3-8 and 10 will once again take the Wisconsin state assessment, the Forward Exam. State assessments are required by both State (Wis. Stat. § 118.30) and Federal ESSA (Every Student Succeeds Act) Law. The state assessment testing window runs between March 18 and April 26, 2024. Each 3rd and 4th grade classroom has a specific testing schedule within that testing window. As it becomes available, testing dates and details will be communicated by your child's teacher.
Picture Days for the 2024-2025 School Year
Picture Days for the 2024-2025 school year have been confirmed. You may go to whichever school best fits your schedule with the exception of Kimberly High School Students who must go to KHS to have their ID's printed. Additional details and a sign-up link will be sent out later in the year.
Kindergarten Registration
