Hello neighbors! My name is Jim Newman and I will be the new Cross Country coach for Bigfoot HS. Social distancing has put me a bit behind in introducing myself to some of the athletes so I’m calling on all of you for help. If you know of any student athletes interested in joining next season, (including incoming freshman) please pass along my contact info. I’d greatly appreciate it. Parents of potential athletes, please feel free to contact me with questions or concerns as well. I’ll do my best in answering whatever questions you may have.
Thank you.

Dear Walworth Parents, Guardians, and Community Members,
A facility planning survey was mailed to each household in our District on May 18, 2020. This mailing was routed through a Minneapolis mail hub and was subsequently lost. Because the status was unknown, the surveys were reprinted with a new deadline of July 6, 2020 (the original deadline was June 15, 2020).
We have recently learned that the original surveys have started to arrive in mailboxes, while the new surveys should be arriving in the next few days.
Please respond to either survey when your schedule permits. We apologize for the inconvenience, but we really need your feedback!
If you have any questions, please contact me directly by email Phill.Klamm@walworth.k12.wi.us or by calling my direct number (262) 394-2010.

ASUNTO: El fallo de la Suprema Corte del estado no afectará el cierre de las escuelas
Estimados padres y tutores,
El miércoles, el Tribunal Supremo de Wisconsin derribó la orden del gobernador Tony Evers respecto a permanecer en casa. Si bien por el momento se han levantado las restricciones a los negocios y a las reuniones públicas, el fallo no afecta los cierres actuales de escuelas en el estado.
Para ese fin, el Distrito Escolar Conjunto # 1 de Walworth permanecerá cerrado por el resto del año escolar. Estamos consultando con el Departamento de Salud del Condado de Walworth sobre cómo la decisión puede afectar otros programas y eventos del distrito en el futuro.
Animamos a nuestros estudiantes y sus familias a continuar practicando el distanciamiento social y adherirse a las pautas proporcionadas por los Centros de Prevención y Control de Enfermedades (CDC) y otras entidades. Se espera que el gobernador y la legislatura pronto publiquen un nuevo plan para los negocios y las reuniones públicas.
Gracias por su atención a esta comunicado.
Atentamente,
Phill Klamm
Administrador Interino del Distrito Escolar
#WalworthJ1
May 14, 2020
SUBJECT: State Supreme Court ruling will not affect school closures
Dear Parents and Guardians,
On Wednesday, the Wisconsin Supreme Court struck down Governor Tony Evers' stay-at-home order. While restrictions on businesses and gatherings have been lifted for the time being, the ruling does not affect current school closures in the state.
To that end, the Walworth Jt. School District #1 will remain closed for the remainder of the school year. We are consulting with the Walworth County Department of Health regarding how the ruling may affect other district programming and events in the future.
We encourage our students and families to continue practicing social distancing and adhere to the guidelines provided by the CDC and other entities. It is expected that the governor and legislature will release a new plan for businesses and gatherings soon.
Thank you for your attention to this communication.
Sincerely,
Phill Klamm
Interim District Administrator

Callie, Grade 6
Callie has always been very interested in caring for animals, and has enjoyed caring for chickens and goats at home. She cares for the chickens on a daily basis while being home, and decided she wanted to try and hatch some chicks. The eggs need at least 21 days in the incubator to hatch, and today is day 22! So far she has had 17 chicks hatch 12 hours, and there are many more to come. We are waiting for 28 more eggs to hatch into baby chicks!
We would love to see what other Walworth students are doing! Please submit write-up and pictures to social.media@walworth.k12.wi.us to be featured on our social media pages.

The Boldger Kindergarten Bunch loved spreading joy and kindness during the “You’ve Got A Friend," kindness week. We also discovered how much our literacy skills have blossomed during the national “Read Across America” celebration of Dr. Seuss. Could it have been the glasses or the protein in the green eggs and ham? 😊

During February’s Kindness Week, the RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) students read with the first and second graders! The fifth and sixth grade RAK members chose a book and read to the younger students. Once finished, the RAK members talked about the book and shared homemade kindness bookmarks (made by the RAK members) with each younger student. It was a day of kindness and fun for all involved! Well done RAK!

The children in Miss Koltes' junior jindergarten class were speechless when we went to get our Gingerbread Man cookie out of the oven and he was gone! The Gingerbread Man sent us on quite an adventure around school as he left us a trail of crumbs and several clues. Luckily, we were able to find the Gingerbread Man and enjoy this delicious treat during our daily snack time.

Mrs. Hummel's junior kindergarten class had tremendous fun on their Gingerbread Man Adventure! They baked their Gingerbread Man in their little oven and when they returned from music class, they discovered that their Gingerbread Man had escaped! A few crumbs and note were left behind. The note read that the Gingerbread Man went to the gym to play basketball. The class quickly went to the gym, where another note and crumbs were left behind. The note read that the Gingerbread Man went up to IDC. The children were on a mission to find their GIngerbread Man and went right up to IDC. There were more crumbs and another note! The note said the Gingerbread Man was tired and went to the nurses' room to take a nap, so the class rushed to the nurse's room. On the bed was another note a few more crumbs! The note said that the GIngerbread Man was thirsty after his nap and had a chocolate milk! The class went to the milk cooler and found another note and more crumbs! The note said that after his milk, he went to the atrium to have fun at recess. The class went directly to the atrium and searched all around for their Gingerbread Man. McKinley found the Gingerbread Man at the bottom of the slide! Everyone cheered with joy and excitement that their GIngerbread Man was found! They quickly went to their classroom, decorated him with frosting and candy, and enjoyed every tasty bite! Now he could no longer be on the loose in the school! What an amazing adventure!

The infamous story of "Charlotte's Web" inspired much learning in Ms. Boldger's kindergarten class this fall. Each day for several weeks, a chapter was read, and insightful discussions about friendships and farm life, captivated each child. Imagine the EXCITEMENT when a "miracle" would take place when sight words would mysteriously appear in the web above Simba's habitat. The ending of the story was bittersweet but what joy to receive copies of this book to read with our grown ups at home!!!
We delighted in the day when we gave Wilber a buttermilk bath and prepared and ate buttermilk pancakes. Our posters filled with sight words will be an interactive learning board at home and we are thrilled to continue our journey with these beloved friends, Charlotte and Wilber. 🐖🕷🕸
