Our All District Read officially kicks off on Monday, February 1st! 

For this entire school year we have done everything possible to keep our students and staff safe while prioritizing in-person learning. Of all the safety and risk mitigation measures and efforts implemented, none has been more impactful than masking. The science and the data support this, and we stand behind it. We will continue to follow the science and rely on our Medical Advisory Board to help guide policies and procedures. To be clear, regardless of the political action in Madison, masks will be required in all schools for anyone entering a facility in the School District of Elmbrook. Read more for additional information.

Last evening (January 12th), the School District of Elmbrook's Board of Education approved adding 4-Year-Old Kindergarten (4K) for the 2021-2022 school year by a vote of 5-2. The 4K offering will be tuition-free and hosted at each District elementary school. Prior to the approval, Elmbrook was one of only five Districts across the state to not offer this half-day, educational program to our community.

Here Comes the Bus allows you to view the real-time location of your child's school bus on your smartphone, tablet or computer. With it, you will have the information you need to send your children to the bus stop at just the right time. What's more, you'll have peace of mind knowing your children haven't missed the bus.

We are excited to announce a continued partnership with 1st Day School Supplies for the upcoming 2020-21 school year.  1st Day School Supplies is going to help parents and teachers get the exact supplies needed for next school year without the risk of shopping at WalMart, Target or Staples.

Roger Bottoni, former Tonawanda Principal, passed away on Wednesday, March 18. Roger began his 30-year career in Elmbrook as a teacher at Woodside School and transitioned to the role of Principal at Fairview North Elementary School. In 1970 he became the first Principal of Tonawanda Elementary School where he remained until his retirement in 1992.  

Beginning on Monday, March 16 - Friday, March 20, all Elmbrook Schools will move to virtual learning and no students will report to school.

On Thursday, March 12 Governor Evers declared a Public Health Emergency for the State of Wisconsin and called upon the people of Wisconsin to work aggressively to slow the spread of COVID-19. We take this responsibility seriously, as we consider the impact of our decisions on students and their learning, our families and staff and their personal and professional responsibilities, and the greater Elmbrook Community. As we learn from others' experiences with COVID-19 both across the country and around the world, we want to answer one question with confidence; 'Are we doing all that we can to keep our students, staff members, and community safe?'
