As the 2022-2023 school year approaches, we are introducing #WildcatNation to some of our new staff! Please join us in welcoming Mr. Larson, our new Physical Education Teacher!
My name is Kyle Larson. I am excited to be joining La Farge School as the new PE teacher!
My wife and I have three kids and have lived in Coon Valley for 15 years. I have a Bachelors degree in Physical and Health Education from Winona State University, and I am looking forward to getting back into teaching after working in management for the past few years.
I have always enjoyed the outdoors and many different sports, but golf has always been my favorite. I enjoy downhill skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, and hiking. We also like to fish on the water and more recently on the ice!
I can't wait to meet all of you and be a part of the Wildcat family!


Out with the old and in with the new! We have new wildcat apparel on the way which means we need to make room! Come check out what we have at discounted prices. Apparel ranges from youth to adults, and only $5-$25.

As the 2022-2023 school year approaches, we are introducing #WildcatNation to some of our new staff! Please join us in welcoming Andrea Smith, a new paraeducator!
Greetings! My name is Andrea Smith. I live in Viola with my husband Greg, who teaches at Kickapoo, and our four children. I enjoy music, sports, kayaking, walking/running, and watching my kids participate in all the things they love to do! I'm looking forward to working in La Farge this upcoming year. I ended up last school year as a sub and loved spending time in a variety of classrooms and definitely enjoyed getting to know all of the students and staff members. Enjoy the rest of the summer and we'll see you in a few short weeks!



As we gear up for the 22-23 school year, we wanted to introduce #WildcatNation to some of our new staff members! Today, please join us in welcoming Karen Brandl, our new HS English Teacher!
Karen Brandl taught English at North Crawford School District for the past twenty-two years. She has degrees from Lakeland College in Sheboygan and UW La Crosse. She’s particularly passionate about writing and loves reading student papers.
Outside school hours, she enjoys gardening, cooking, reading, hiking and spending time with friends and family—especially her granddaughter, Maggie. Brandl’s two grown children, Libby and Joe, are graduates of the La Farge district. Karen and her husband of thirty-some years, Steve, live in rural La Farge with a cat, a dog, and a few chickens.

In preparation for the opening of our new shop and lab this fall, four La Farge Schools teachers are attending the Wisconsin Fab Lab Retreat at Fox Valley Technical College! The Fab Lab (Fabrication Laboratory) Retreat helps teachers better understand how Fab Labs can support multi-disciplinary learning and inspire students in all classrooms, as well as our larger community!
Pictured is one project that the teachers participated in - using a laser cutter and creating circuits to build flashlights. Great work Mr. Fowell, Ms. Lund, Ms. Walleser, and Mrs. Benson!
