Seven Spanish Club students and four adult chaperones just returned from a trip of a lifetime to Costa Rica with EF Tours! Some of the highlights were whitewater rafting, ziplining, a crocodile boat tour, attending a folklore evening and cultural dance performance, swimming at the beach and in hot springs, an aerial tram tour of the rainforest canopy, hiking to the bottom of a waterfall, harvesting our own pineapples, learning the process for making chocolate from the cacao plant, spotting monkeys, sloths, macaws, toucans, iguanas, and other critters in their natural habitat, making new friends, trying new traditional foods, and experiencing the Costa Rican way of life firsthand. Pura Vida!

This weekend, our high school boys basketball team had the amazing opportunity to play at the bubble in Reedsburg, and on the Final Four court from the 2015 NCCA tournament! (That was the year Wisconsin beat Kentucky, ending their perfect season.) They had a great three days of basketball, experiencing success and continuing to learn and grow as a team.

This past week Gweny Walker participated in Badger Girls State. American Legion Auxiliary Badger Girls State (ALABGS), is a program sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary, and is a week-long government and leadership conference for young women in their junior year of high school. ALABGS is a practical civics conference that allows students to learn about state government by actively participating in it. Attendees of the program learned by doing as they became citizens of a mythical fifty-first state, the state of Badger, and functioned according to the laws of the State of Wisconsin.

In our last PBIS Assembly of the school year, these students were recognized for how they solve problems. In their guidance classes, they've been learning about the STEP method of solving problems. That is: S - say the problem, T - think of solutions, E - explore consequences, and P - pick a solution. Great job!
