Dear Campbellsport School District Families,
The purpose of this communication is to update you again about our District’s continued responses to the pandemic COVID-19 situation. Governor Evers and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services have issued a statement (https://dpi.wi.gov/sites/default/files/news-release/dpinr2020-27-A_0.pdf) requiring the closure of all public and private schools in Wisconsin. The Campbellsport School District will have school on Monday, March 16th and Tuesday, March 17th. Starting Wednesday, March 18th, there will be no face-to-face instruction through Monday, April 6th, at which time we will be following particular recommendations.
Please remember that “It takes a village to raise a child”. It will take the efforts of both the schools and our families to continue working together to meet the needs of educating and supporting your child during this temporary school closure. The teaching staff and schools will be preparing for the specific logistics on how this process will work. We ask for your patience as this process unfolds. More information will come out as we develop procedures and as we collect more information that needs to be shared. This is a work in progress.
For now, what can you do? Start planning how you will have supervision of your children. Next, do some spring cleaning to set up a student work station. This space should be comfortable, well lighted (natural if possible), and have the resources to work for longer periods of time. A comfortable couch or lounge chair may not be the best option. Start planning for how you or your family members can work together with the tasks that your child will be asked to complete. Is there a sibling who can help, a neighbor, grandparent, etc. who is available to offer guidance and maintain a schedule? Think about creating a schedule that builds in breaks and times to recreate. Learning can best take place in an orderly, structured environment.
In the efforts to move forward we will need some information from you. Please fill out the following form that will help us meet our needs by Monday, March 16th at 7:00 a.m. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf6mwyfpOrZrD2Z20QTVjLejBCnnkztLLkAnr9XH2b0dvtRhA/viewform?usp=sf_link
We will continue to communicate helpful updates as they become available and look forward to continuing our partnership with you. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at pamundson@csd.k12.wi.us or 920-533-8381.
Sincerely,
Paul A. Amundson
District Administrator

The Board of Control just approved Campbellsport’s request to be moved to the Wisconsin Flyway Conference by a 9-1 vote, effective in 2021-22!
Box Out Bullying Parent Workshop will be held on Tuesday, March 17th at Campbellsport Elementary School in the gym starting at 6:00 p.m. We hope you can join us for this informative workshop. More information can be found on the Campbellsport School District Website.
The South Eden Robotics Team 4410C Technocracy Charlie (based in Fond du Lac) won the Wisconsin State Vex Robotics High School Championship over the weekend. They were also named the Excellence Award winner, the highest honor given to a team in competition!
The event was held in Appleton, and the team went undefeated in qualification matches, the quarter finals, semifinals and finals plus were the Robot Skills Finalist. This win secures their invitation to the VEX World Championships in April.
Coach Alan Hathaway said of the team "what an amazing way to cap off their final state tournament as a team, they have worked very hard for this and I couldn't be more proud of them!"
Pictured team members: Henry Hathaway, Mitchell Gonzalez and Connor Hamm.
Following up, buses will pick up students starting at 10 am. Thank you!
All Campbellsport Public Schools will close early at 10 am due to facility issues at CES. All after-school and evening events are still on as scheduled.
CES parents: If you cannot pick up your child at 10 am, you can pick them up at CHS in the cafeteria.
No students in school today, but our gym is packed. Over 650 teachers are pictured here, listening to Aaron Sadoff from the North Fond du Lac School District. It is a great day for teachers to be learners!
CHS cleared another hurdle with our requested move to the Flyway Conference for all sports starting in the 2021-22 school year. On Wednesday, February 12, Tom Griesemer and Todd Hencsik presented at the WIAA Conference Realignment Task Force meeting to reaffirm our position that the Flyway Conference is the best fit for our school and our community. The Task Force unanimously approved our proposal and forwarded the proposal onto the WIAA Board of Control on March 6 to approve, deny, or remand back to the Conference Realignment Task Force.
This is great news for Cougar Nation and our community!
