Mrs. Bendorf (our librarian) knows no better way to celebrate our first day of school than with a snazzy story! Join us for a first day of school Bookish Brain Break at 3 on our Shullsburg schools Facebook page.


Here is a reminder of what doors students should use to enter the school building. Keep in mind that Peace St. is ONE WAY from 7:40 am to 8:15 am and parents will only be allowed to enter the District Office. We can't wait to see our students Tuesday, September 1, 2020! #shullsburgpride

Picture Day



Good Afternoon:
I have been asked by Jerry Huffman of the U.S. Census Bureau, to ask that all schools distribute the information below to parents, facebook, etc.,, to get the word out if you would please. The deadline is fast approaching.
Much appreciated.
Thank you.
Carla Jacobson
Lafayette County Clerk
Parents:
Our kids need your help. And it will take you about ten minutes.
For more than a year, the US Census Bureau has been working in Wisconsin to count every person who lives here.
Knowing the exact population of Lafayette County is critical. The federal government uses this number to distribute federal funds that directly impact our schools. Most importantly, the government helps underwrite the cost of our lunch and breakfast programs. If our population count is off by even 5%-10% that loss of service may dictate how many children we can feed every day.
In addition to the meal programs, the Census also impacts special education grants, technical education, and Title 1 grants.
If you haven't already, I am personally asking each of you to fill out your Census forms. You can go online at 2020Census.gov and answer a few questions. You can also call 1-844-330-2020 and do it by telephone. If you prefer Spanish, please call 1-844-468-2020. The entire process will take about ten minutes.
I cannot emphasize how important it is to participate. Whether you're a grandfather or grandmother, have never had any children in the school system and it's especially important to count every child in your home. Every person counts.
The Census is shutting down its operation a month early so you only have until September 30th to comply.
Please, help us help our children.

Attention 6th Grade Parents/Guardians!! We want your incoming sixth graders to feel ready and positive about their first day of junior high school. There is an orientation scheduled just for them on Wednesday, August 26 starting at 4:00 p.m. and ending around 5:00. Students only need to bring themselves (and a face covering) to the East entrance of the building by Jesse Miner. We will split into two groups and move through the building to meet teachers, learn the schedule, and answer questions. Remote learners need not attend.

ALL JH & HS Students!! Please check your schedule in Skyward and remember where your FIRST hour class is. On the first day you will go directly to that room upon entering the building. Do not stop at your lockers.

The Shullsburg School District will not be hosting an Open House this year but instead will be offering a "Meet Your Teacher" event for 4K-5th grade students and their parents on Wednesday, August 26th from 1:00 pm to 6:00 pm and Friday, August 28th from 9:00 am to 3:30 pm. At this time students and parents will meet the teacher, visit the classroom, bring in school supplies and pay school fees. Parents need to use the conference scheduler in Skyward to setup a time with your child's teacher. If you have any questions, please contact the school office.

The Shullsburg School Office will be closed tomorrow, (8/14/20) for cleaning.
