Family STEAM Night is April 11!
The emphasis of STEAM Night this year is Art! Our 2D Art Show will be open in the multipurpose room from 8:00-11:00 am on Wednesday, April 10 and Thursday, April 11 for adults who are unable to attend STEAM Night. All visitors should have ID and sign in at the front office before going to the multipurpose room.
During STEAM Night, the 2D Art Show will again be open in the multipurpose room, as well as a 3D Art Show in the library, and local artist exhibits in the gym. Please remember when visiting the artists in the gym to be walking, using inside voices, and just looking and not touching. The local artists will be showcasing their artwork and demonstrating their creative process.

Our district is committed to engaging our parents and families in every child’s education. To continue our journey to excellence in this area, we gather data from stakeholders to determine where we are as a district and to set and act on realistic, measurable goals for continuous improvement.
The Parent Satisfaction Survey allows you as parents to provide feedback on your experience with your child’s school. Please take about ten minutes and complete this short survey. The survey can be accessed online at this link: Minocqua J1 School District Parent Satisfaction Survey.
If you need a paper copy of the survey, we have them available in the front office. We will also have stations available at STEAM Night, where parents can stop by and take the survey. The Parent Satisfaction Survey will be open from April 1-30. We are looking forward to a significant number of responses from all parents in our district!
Thank you for your support,
