A Message from the Principals: Click Here to Translate Happy February!
We are so proud of all of our students for their hard work this year! A big milestone that happens in February is the 100th day of school! The growth from September 2nd until now is so awesome! Be sure to compliment your child today for the hard work they are doing! Academic Milestones: Math & Literacy
The hard work is paying off! We have seen significant measurable growth in both math and literacy across all grade levels since the start of the year. |
-
In Math: Students are showing a deeper "number sense" and a newfound confidence in tackling complex word problems.
- In Literacy: Our focus on phonics and comprehension is showing in our improved reading fluency scores.

Building Wide Success:
Being Safe: From the playground to the cafeteria, students are making mindful choices to keep themselves and their friends out of harm's way. When a reteaching or review of rules needs to occur, staff work hard to provide on demand lessons and changes to support learning and expectations.
Being Respectful: We’ve witnessed so many "small wins" lately—students holding doors, using kind words during disagreements, and showing genuine empathy for one another. Being Responsible: We are seeing a fantastic increase in students taking ownership of their learning, keeping their workspaces organized, and arriving ready to work.
This progress is a team effort. Your support at home is a direct contributor to these success stories. Conflict, Mean Moment, or Bullying?
We’ve been working hard with students to identify the differences between conflict, mean moments, and bullying. This checklist is used when students are working through incidents at school to help reflect and determine next steps for situations. |

In February, the Elementary School held a fire drill. Did you know the introduction of fire drills is partially credited to Edward F. Croker, the Fire Chief of the New York Fire Department from 1899 to 1911. We hold fire drills to ensure and practice safe and orderly protocols to exit the building in an expedient manner. |

| SDSF Renewal of Project Adam Heart Safe School Designation |
|
|
In January, we conducted an Emergency Medical Drill at each of our school buildings. Our Medical Response Teams consist of staff members who volunteer to serve on the team. The team members go through training annually with the school nurse, and learn to respond to many different emergency medical scenarios.
This year we focused on responding to a sudden cardiac arrest. Orange Cross Ambulance also participated in the drills, and responded to each location. The teams did an excellent job of following the protocols we have in place to keep our students, staff, and community members safe.
We were also able to renew our designation as a Project ADAM Heart Safe School. This is attained by schools upon successful implementation of a quality sudden cardiac arrest program of awareness, training and effective emergency response to promote a Heart Safe environment for students, visitors and staff as outlined within the Heart Safe School Checklist. We renew our designation every 3 years.
Thank you to all of the Emergency Medical Response Team staff members, the Sheboygan Falls Police Department, Orange Cross Ambulance, and Emergency Medical Service volunteers for everything you do to care for our students, staff, and community members! |
