All you have to do is input the email addresses and Raise Craze does the rest! During the fundraiser, students go out and pay it forward by completing Acts of Kindness for others. Spend time serving not selling! This fundraiser will run from May 1st through the 17th. Questions can be directed to Ashley Balck ([email protected] or 608-369-1085) Raise Craze - How It Works Video — Raise Craze CORRECTION TO THE GETTING READY FOR LINEVILLE SUMMER SCHOOL CLASS:
Getting Ready For Lineville Intermediate School – (Grade 5 and new Intermediate school students) 8:30-12 noon each session. Please sign up for only 1 session. August 20th OR August 21st. Where will my locker be located? How do I work a combination lock? What classes will I be taking? Will I be able to find my classes without getting lost? Activities will include tours of the intermediate school, practicing locker combinations, learning about the intermediate school structure and schedule. Students will be able to meet most of the 5th grade staff so there is a familiar face and smile on the first day of school. At 11 o’clock, adults will join students for a Passport experience giving the students more time to practice getting around and show off what they have learned! This time will also be an alternative “Open House” time allowing for parent(s) to meet teachers and everyone to set up their lockers! Using this time eliminates the need to come during the hectic district Open House night. Students will get a head start and feel much more comfortable transitioning to the Intermediate School by taking this class. (Students should enroll in only 1 session). APRIL- SUAMICO LITERACY NEWS:

FROM THE SCHOOL BOARD: New Board of Education Members
On April 2, 2019, Scott Jandrin and Jason Potts became the newest elected members of the Howard Suamico Board of Education.
