Elementary parents: With the cheer and dance clinic taking place this week, we have had some confusion with dismissal. If your child is attending the cheer clinic after school today or the dance clinic after school tomorrow, please contact your child's teacher or the office. We need to know that your child has permission to change their dismissal procedure to attend the clinic. Thank you!
West Monona teachers may begin recording and sharing portions of lessons on google classroom for online students. These lessons may or may not be recorded during their teaching of in-school students. Teachers will make every effort to focus the camera on themselves, and will also strive to position students who don't wish to be videotaped in spots where it is least likely that they are seen. Parents may contact Tim Chesnut or Tasha Lewis with questions or concerns.
