School District of Eleva-Strum

This year our 6-12 Parent-Teacher conferences will be held on October 19th & 22nd, from 4:00-8:00 pm. Given the unprecedented circumstances this year, we are asking parents and students to schedule their time to either meet virtually via Zoom, or to have a phone conference with your student’s teacher. We understand that the times slotted may not necessarily be ideal for your family. If the scheduled conference times do not align with your schedule, please contact your student’s teacher directly to try to work out an alternative time to meet. This year we will continue to utilize student-led conferences with your student's homeroom teacher. Your students will discuss what is going well, what they may be struggling with, will show you their Schoology app, and hopefully a goal they have set for themselves. Student-led conferences have been shown to increase responsibility for learning, intrinsic motivation, and academic achievement. We will be using signup.com to schedule appointments, or you could contact your student's homeroom teacher directly to schedule a time. I have included the sign-up information for all of our teachers on the back of this letter. You can speak with someone other than your student's homeroom teacher. Currently, our teachers are meeting with between 16 and 24 students and parents. Please be respectful of their, and other parents' time.

Good afternoon parents. We as a district have determined that it is in the best interest of our students and community to close school at the end of the day today. Staff are working diligently today to prepare learning materials for students while the shutdown exists. Administration will be working to provide resources and communications to you via our website to assist the best we can during this time. There will be an opportunity tomorrow, Tuesday, March 17th to stop by the school to pick up medications and any other materials or belongings that you may need over the prolonged break. If tomorrow does not work for you, please contact your child's principal to set up another time. We will continue to provide updates during the mandatory shutdown period via phone calls and our website. Thank you for your patience during this unprecedented time.

Please note. At this time the School District of Eleva-Strum DOES plan to hold regular classes this Monday thru Wednesday in alignment with the CDC and State of WI recommendations. As of 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday the district will be suspending classes and access to its facilities until April 6 as per the order from State Gov. Tony Evers. Please visit our website and social media for future updates.
