Last Chance to Help the Library!
Help us raise money for new computers in the library!  They are very OLD and SLOW.  There are 9 delicious varieties of cookie dough from Market Day including a NEW flavor - Lemon Cooler!
 

The profit Tiers works like this:
1-249 boxes = $2.20
250-499 boxes = $3.30
500+ boxes = $4.40
 
So if every family orders 2 we would have $1300.20
 
Right now there are only 27 ordered. All profits from cookies go to the library computers!
Hope for Haiti
We need your help!  The Friess Lake seventh grade Spanish students are doing a fundraiser to help the people in Haiti who are affected by the earthquake.  Our goal is to raise at least $500.  We are inviting you to help us.
 
The people in Haiti have little shelter and are lacking the bare essentials.  We are asking you to consider donating money which we will be sending to the American Red Cross.  If sending a check, please make it out directly to the American Red Cross.  Money will be collected from Friday, January 29 through Friday, February 12.  Thank you for your support in helping us with this project!

2/10 @ Hartford Union High School 
Drama Lecture Hall
7:00-8:30 pm
 
Presenters:     Dick Clement, Northwestern Mutual Life
 
He is a graduate of Carroll College who has worked at Northwestern Mutual for his entire career.  He spent over 20 years in the Information Technology Department, ultimately rising to become the Director of Systems Development.  In 2001, he changed roles to lead the Resource and Vendor Management practice for the IT department. 
 
                        Chad Behnke, HUHS
 
He is a graduate of UW-Stevens Point and the current Supervisor of Technology Services at Hartford Union High School.  Chad is currently pursuing a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership and Policy Analysis from UW-Madison.   
 
Theme:  Seven Survival Skills for the 21st Century
                        Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
                        Collaboration
                        Agility and Adaptability
                        Initiative and Entrepreneurialism
                        Effective Communication
                        Accessing and Analyzing Information
                        Curiosity and Imagination
 
The presenters will talk of how they use these skills in their current jobs. 
 
Format:  Presentations followed by Question and Answer and informal discussion.   
 
Questions to consider: 
 
Describe a day in the life of a student when 21st Century skills are real and rigorously in place.  What does teaching look like?  What does learning look like?  What does assessment look like?
 
What are the implications for K-12 education?  What can/should stay the same?  What can/should change?  How will anytime, anywhere access to new information affect our lives in the future?  The way we work, live, communicate, and learn?
Check Out Athletics!  Come to the Athletic Committee Meeting!

The next athletic committee meeting is Wednesday, February 10, at 6:30.  All board positions will be open next year -- if you are interested in athletics, come and see what it is all about!  Athletics promotes healthy life styles through exercise and sports.  We raise money for team uniforms (basketball, volleyball, cheerleading), gym equipment and sports equipment.  We purchased the Friess Lake dolphin chairs, scoring table and gym banners.  We helped pay for the automated basketball hoop system, will help refinish the gym floor and are thinking about purchasing a rock wall.  We support our kids' summer sport camps and award college scholarships.  How do we do it?  By selling concessions and running tournaments.  Come to the February meeting and let us know you are interested!

Girl Scout Thank You!

A special Thank You! to the moms that helped:  Mrs. Nelson, Mrs. Schwulst, Mrs. Hoefs, Mrs. Biedenbender, Mrs. Crandall, Mrs. Bird and Mrs. Kregel.
 
The Friends Are Fun try-it that the girls earned gets sewed on the front of their Brownie vest.
