We made it to 50 DAYS OF SCHOOL, and Kindergarten celebrated FIFTIES STYLE and were the COOLEST cat in the school! 😎

Our milestone celebration was jumpin' and jivin'! The students showed off their best learning skills with fun stations.

We wrapped up the day with a delicious trip to our school drive-in for root beer floats, after all the important 50th-day math and reading activities. We're halfway to 100!

Sixth Graders Master the Art of Photography at CESA 11! 🖼️

Today was a creative success for sixth-grade students Ellen Martin, Bob Wood, Henry Schneider, and Makayla Reindahl at their photography class at CESA 11.

These students are now equipped with the technical knowledge to take amazing pictures! They focused on key professional skills like manipulating lighting, creating strong composition, and experimenting with perspective and point of view.

They spent the day getting hands-on practice, using two types of cameras and professional tools during a challenging photography scavenger hunt.

This is just the start! These young photographers will be documenting school events in the coming months before returning on April 9 to print their final 8 x 10 masterpieces. We can't wait to see their creations! Mrs. Long, thank you very much for taking on the student.

Dear Warrior Families,

At this time, we are aware that some of our local families may be experiencing economic stress or challenges related to food security, particularly as it relates to potential concerns about benefits like FoodShare WI, SNAP/food-assistance, or other federally-backed programs. We want to help by reminding folks of other potential local supports, such as the ones below.

SCHOOL DISTRICT FREE & REDUCED-PRICE MEALS
We provide breakfast and lunch for eligible students. Confidential applications can be completed at any time and are available in District offices and on our website under the “Foodservice Tab”, or one can be sent home with your student(s). For questions or assistance with the school meal program, contact Joy Nordby: jnordby@clwarriors.org or call 715-263-2114 Ext. 1107.

Students certified for free or reduced-price meals retain their eligibility for the entire school year plus up to 30 operating days into the next school year, regardless of household income changes.
Students who qualified for free meals based on FoodShare participation will continue to be eligible for free meals.
Federal employees affected by furloughs may submit a Free and Reduced Meal Application based on their current household income, which may temporarily be zero.

WEEKEND BACKPACK NUTRITION PROGRAM
Together with the Salvation Army and other community resources, we offer the Weekend Backpack Nutrition Program. Any family with a child in the district can register for the Backpack Program. A backpack or shopping bag filled with staple food items including coupons for bread and milk will be distributed to your school age child at the end of each week. This is a confidential program and no personal information will be shared with the Salvation Army or the volunteers packing them. A registration form is available at the Elementary School. Or contact Elementary School Counselor, Jami Van Heuklom jvanheuklom@clwarriors.org with questions.

This week, three of our students: Carli Cress, Joshua Forsblade, and Riley Gagner attended the UW– River Falls Day of Music event!

This event gives students interested in pursuing music or music education a chance to experience what life is like as a college music student. Students sat in on music classes and rehearsals, learned about college life, and even had an individual lesson with a UWRF faculty member.

It was a fantastic opportunity for our students to explore their musical interests and see what the next step in their journey could look like!

Hi Everyone! My name is Tonya Dix. I live with my husband in Clear Lake. We enjoy hiking, canoeing, gardening and snowshoeing. I also enjoy creating multi-media collage art. I was a 13 year student at Clear Lake and now I'm working as a Special Education Paraprofessional. I have over 20 years working with kids as a preschool teacher, a nanny in TN and CA and as a cottage parent at a children's home on St. Croix Island, USVI. I'm excited to be a Warrior again and working with Clear Lake students and staff!
