Love & Logic Parenting Class
Mrs. Thomsen will once again be offering the 6 week L&L parenting class that so many Friess Lake parents have found helpful.  Please see the flyer that is coming home with students on Thursday, Jan.7th, for details and registration information.  If you need child care during the class, arrangements can be made.  Please indicate that when registering.
Destiny - Our New Library Automated Card Catalog System 
Friess Lake recently purchased new library automation software.  The Library Card Catalog link is on our Friess Lake home page in Family Resources and Student Resources.  When it opens, click the Friess Lake School Library link, and then click the Catalog tab at the top left.  The program is web based, enabling the same program to be used at school and at home.  This same program is in place at HUHS.
 
We have also purchased an additional feature which allows us access to thousands of pre-approved web sites.  When a search for library materials is put into motion, age appropriate, pre-approved web sites are also generated as results. 
 
The decision to purchase new software has been a progressive decision.  About three years ago, our library software was sold to another company.  With the sale, came the statement that there would be no future upgrades, and thus, we anticipated replacement of our old system at some point.  Recently, we have experienced some software problems, which prompted the purchase of Destiny.
Open Enrollment
February 1 - 19 - Parents may apply to non-resident school district. 
Conferences
A quick note about Spring Conferences.  Spring Conferences are open to all families who wish to meet with the teacher.  If an elementary teacher is requesting a Spring Conferences, you will receive a form from them.  If you don't receive a request form, but would still like to have a conference, simply call the office at 628-2380 to set up a time.

Girls basketball uniforms need to be turned in as soon as possible.  Please return the clean uniforms to the athletic room in a baggie with their name on it.  Thank you for your prompt response!

January Is National Radon Action Month

Radon causes 21,000 lung cancer deaths a year in the United States.  The only way to know if you have radon in your home is to test for it.  Radon test kits can be picked up at the Washington County Health Department, 333 E Washington St., Suite 1100 in West Bend Monday - Friday from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM for the low cost of only $6.00.  If you prefer to have a kit mailed to you, send your name and address along with a check for $8.00 made out to the Washington County Health Department, P.O. Box 2003, West Bend, WI 53095.

 

Additional information is available at: www.co.washington.wi.us/chn or by calling the Washington County Health Department at 1-888-569-7236 or 262-335-4462.
