As a reminder, the Elementary Facility Plan Citizen Task Force's charge is to recommend 1 or 2 preferred elementary school facility options by the end of 2024, including advice on whether the number of elementary schools in the District should be reduced and if so, then how, where, and when. 

Ross Jirgl, an actor and 2008 graduate of Wausau East High School, is set to play retired NFL quarterback Tom Brady.

Located on the campus of Hewitt-Texas Elementary School, Red Granite utilizes the core principals of Public Waldorf with the goal of fostering a life-long love of learning and critical thinking by keeping kids engaged with the outdoors, one another, and the world around them.

As we've shared with you previously, the district is in the midst of an approximate $1.5 million budget deficit heading into the school year. A major reason for the budget deficit is the state funding model that has not kept pace with inflation. However, we're also navigating issues such as declining enrollment and the end of one-time ESSER funding.

As a reminder, from earlier this year, this is part of a Wausau School District/Wausau School Board process to create a long-range elementary school facilities plan.  That plan will focus, in particular, on whether the number of elementary schools in the Wausau School District should be reduced and if so, then how, where, and when. 

CONGRATULATIONS, Lumberjacks!! We're so incredibly proud of you!! 🎉

Congratulations, Lumberjacks!  You made us ALL so incredibly proud and we can't wait to see what you do next season!
