Please remember all students will need to be signed out by a named person/adult from registration at the conclusion of the event. YOU MUST FILL OUT THE FORM FOR EACH CHILD ATTENDING!

Piece by piece, Wildcat Pride comes together! 💜💛 Every student in grades 6–12 decorated a piece of our community mosaic art project. Once all the pieces were put together, they created one big message: WILDCAT PRIDE! #WildRoseWildcats #WildcatPride

Our 8th graders showed off their amazing culinary skills! 🧀 They put their skills to work in Intro to Family & Consumer Science, whipping up some seriously delicious grilled cheese sandwiches. 😋 We’d say they nailed it! 👏 #WildRoseWildcats

A little Wisconsin trivia made lunchtime even more fun! 🧀🦡 Our #WildRoseWildcats put their Wisconsin knowledge to the test for a chance to win some fun Wisconsin-themed prizes! 🎉

Some middle school students met with Chief Klapoetke to learn what police do and how they keep us safe! They also got to learn about his squad car. 🚔 Thank you to Chief Klapoetke! 🙌💜 #WildRoseWildcats

More lunch choices are available for middle and high school students this year! 🙌 Students now have two fully reimbursable meal options at the same lunch price: 🥪 Option 1: Grab-N-Go This line will always include a ham or chicken salad, chips, an Uncrustable and a slice of pizza. Some weeks will also feature an additional option, such as a chicken wrap or sub sandwich. A variety of fruits and vegetables will be available at the garden bar. 🍽️ Option 2: Traditional Hot Lunch Students can choose the hot lunch featured on the monthly menu, available on the district website and in the Wildcat Chat. As an Offer vs. Serve district, students only need to select 3 of the 5 meal components offered: meat/meat alternative, grain, fruit, vegetable and milk. The hot lunch line will also feature some new menu items throughout the year, typically on Fridays. So far, students have enjoyed pizza crispers and quesadillas! We’re excited to offer our #WildRoseWildcats more choices at lunchtime! 🐾

English 12 students started the year by creating their own “plates” to represent what fills their lives on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. 🍽️ It was a great way to start the year by getting to know one another! #WildRoseWildcats

English 9 and 10 students took time to learn more about their classmates through a hexagon activity. Students shared information about their passions, hobbies, likes and dislikes, then worked together to connect EVERY hexagon into one large path. The activity highlighted the many things students have in common and how individual connections can bring a group together. 💛 #WildRoseWildcats

A little chalk art makes the first week of school even more fun! ☀️ These Wild Rose Elementary Wildcats are already making memories at recess. #WildRoseWildcats

A huge thank you to Allie and Tanya from Redgranite Correctional Institution for organizing an incredible school supply drive! 🎒✏️ Their generosity went beyond school supplies. They also raised $400 to help families in need with school lunch costs. We are so blessed to have people like Allie and Tanya who go above and beyond to support our students and families. Thank you for making such a meaningful difference in our community! 💛 #WildRoseWildcats

A HUGE thank you to Evergreen Campsites and Resort for your incredibly generous donation of school supplies! ✏️📚 Hannah and Jim care so much about our kids, and we are truly blessed to have their support. Thank you for always finding ways to give back and invest in our students. We appreciate you more than you know! 💛 #WildRoseWildcats

Some of our new staff got a taste of the community during a recent tour, highlighting some of the places and history that make our community special! 💜 This covered bridge is a favorite local backdrop for photos, prom and homecoming memories. 📸 We’re excited to welcome our new staff and help them get to know the community they’ll soon call home! #WildRoseWildcats

💐 A beautiful welcome back for our WildCat teachers! As our teachers return for in-service days and prepare for the start of a new school year, the school garden is blooming with a colorful welcome just for them. We’re ready to get the year growing, #WildRoseWildcats! 🌱💜💛

Subject: Help Shape a New Parent Resource

Dear Wild Rose Community,

Over the past decade, Children and Screens: Institute of Digital Media and Child Development has brought together leading researchers to advance the science of children's digital media use and translate that research into practical, evidence-based guidance for families, educators, healthcare professionals, and policymakers. Through interdisciplinary research, educational resources, and public programming, we work to help children lead healthier lives in a digital world.

As part of this mission, Children and Screens is exploring the possibility of creating a new parent-facing text message program that would share brief, practical, research-backed tips to support your child’s health and development in a digital world. We are seeking feedback from parents and caregivers to help us better understand what information would be most useful and how a program like this could best meet families' needs.

Because you understand firsthand how important, and sometimes challenging, it can be to support children in a tech-driven age, your perspective would be especially valuable in helping us shape this potential resource.

We would be grateful if you would take 3 minutes to complete this short survey:
Take the Survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/NR7MBRW

As a thank-you, survey participants will have the option to enter a raffle for a $50 gift card. Participants may also choose to share their email if they are interested in hearing about a possible pilot of the texting program. The survey deadline is Friday, August 14, 2026

Thank you for sharing your time and insight.

Warmly,
The Children and Screens Team
