Hello Rawson Community!

I hope this message finds you well and full of excitement for the upcoming school year! The air is buzzing with anticipation, and we are thrilled to welcome our Rawson families back through out doors on September 5th.

We look forward to working with your child to develop new relationships, strengthen current relationships, and uncover all the ways we will all grow this year. We understand that with the excitement of a new school year may also come some apprehension and uncertainty. Please feel assured that we are fully committed to creating a consistent and predictable environment that will allow every student thrive. Our dedicated Rawson staff is here to support your child's development every step of the way.

For your convenience, a copy of the Welcome Back Letter was sent to your email. If you haven't had a chance to review it yet, I encourage you to do so carefully. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to our school office. We are here to assist you in any way we can.

Wishing you all the best,

Nick Anton

We miss our students when they are not in school! If your student is sick, we hope they are well soon.

As a partner in your student's education, we want to work with you to have students in school as much as possible.

Please let us know if there is anything that we can do to help with the consistent, positive attendance of every student.

The School District of South Milwaukee partners with SPEAK UP, SPEAK OUT (SUSO) hosted by The Wisconsin Department of Justice. SUSO is a comprehensive, one-stop place to turn to with your concerns regarding school safety. A facet of the Resource Center that we are particularly pleased to share with Wisconsin students and parents is the threat reporting system. The SUSO threat reporting system is available 24/7 and is free to all. Students can submit a school safety concern by accessing the app on their Chromebook or by visiting speakup.widoj.gov. Resource Center staff work around-the-clock to respond to reports and to deploy a response locally by communicating directly with school administrators, law enforcement and counselors.

Student attendance is required on all regularly scheduled school days per Wisconsin State Statue. Wis. Stat. Sec. 118.16(4)(d) and 118.15(1)(f)

Classroom teachers will be taking regular attendance on all school days, Monday - Friday.

To report student absences for students that are ill, please use this link. To report absences that are not illness related, contact the school at 414-766-2904 or Rawson@sdsm.k12.wi.us

Absence reporting is required every regular school day, Monday through Friday. (Absences do not need to be reported on No School days.)
