Wales Conferences are Being Held - NO SCHOOL

On October 30th and November 3rd Wales is holding parent teacher conferences. If you haven't scheduled one, please reach out to your student's teacher.

Because of these conferences, we will not be having school on Friday, October 31st or Monday, November 3rd.

Enjoy your long weekend!

Costumes and Fall Festivities

 

On Thursday, October 30th, our building will enjoy some fall-themed activities throughout the day.

Your child is welcome to wear a costume to school, if they would like to do so. Please keep in mind, learners will still go to recess, specials, etc. during the day and should be able to run around safely. Here are the guidelines for costumes worn during the school day: 

No masks

No blood

No weapons

If your learner has a blowup costume, they may bring it to school and wear it for the dance only. 

Thank you for helping to keep our day centered around learning.

DOUSMAN ART NIGHT

Students from UW-Whitewater's Early Childhood Education program will be at Dousman Elementary to offer art projects for students to do. This is their final exam for their Art Methods class. Students will have opportunities to choose from over 18 different projects. They can make as many as they can during this event. Students in the past have often gifted their projects to friends and families for the holidays. We hope to see you there.
