The First Weeks of School
The first two weeks of school were amazing! There was an energy and excitement about the year and most importantly learning. Many great things were established and expectations and procedures were taught and practiced. After a brief interruption for virtual learning, we are planning and preparing how to come back to where we left off and get back to the fun of learning in person.

Welcome to the Calm Cave!
The "Calm Cave" has sensory resources and contains items that relate to Sight, Touch, Taste, and Smell. Each of these items is individually wrapped (mints, scratch, and sniff stickers) or can be cleaned after each use. Many of the special education students have already used this area to take a break when they are overstimulated or frustrated.

Virtual Learning Update
Students and staff are both happy with the news of returning to in-person learning on Monday, September 27th! Despite the preference to teach live in person, the Chequamegon North Staff has been doing an amazing job of engaging and reaching their students virtually. Teachers use a variety of technology in order to be able to see students, present information, and communicate effectively. It is a balancing act that compares to an expert juggler! Below are a few pictures of core instruction as well as elective offerings. We are thankful to have had our students for the first 2 weeks of school to get started and have done our best with 2 weeks of virtual learning...but we are so looking forward to the week when we have the first week of school AGAIN!
