On Tuesday, April 14, Dixon Elementary staff held a parade throughout the Elmbrook community that brought smiles to students and staff alike. The parade route, orchestrated by Julie Johnson and Brett Netzel, spanned about 23 miles throughout the neighborhoods of Dixon families and included over 50 cars driven by Dixon staff members. D.A.R.E. Officer Kevin David led the parade and members of the Brookfield Police Department helped to block intersections and turns to allow the parade to flow smoothly throughout its route.
"Thank you to our incredible staff and Police Department for making this event possible," reflected Dixon Principal Luke Sadowski. "The turnout was phenomenal and the spirit of the Dixon family really came together to have an amazing celebration. It was all about getting smiles on the faces of our kids and our staff."
