Every member school of the League is invited to nominate one girl and one boy for the ExCEL Award. Nominees must:

- Make satisfactory progress toward graduation
- Participate in an MSHSL fine arts and/or athletic activity

Desired Daily Experience Initiative
Help define the "desired daily experience" for District 196 students, families and employees
Students, parents/guardians and employees are being asked to complete a survey to share their desired daily experience, and schools will be conducting focus groups to help ensure all perspectives are represented.
What best describes what you would like to experience on an everyday basis? Similarly, what are your hopes and expectations for the experience of our students?
This is an important step in our district’s current strategic planning work. The themes identified in these surveys and focus groups will define our district’s desired daily experience for students, families and employees. We will refer back to these themes often as we develop the vision and plans that will guide our work to achieve our goals and mission of educating all of our students to reach their full potential.
The survey is open now through December 17 [extended deadline]. All answers are collected anonymously and this is completely voluntary. The survey is appropriate for students in grade 6 and above.
