Our New Glarus High School English Department and students took a road trip to Spring Green last week to catch a performance at American Players Theatre. 🎭✨ Nothing like seeing great literature jump off the page and onto the stage (with way better costumes than we imagined in class!). Students came back with new insights, plenty of laughs, and maybe even a little inspiration for their next essay. Big thanks to APT for an unforgettable experience!
October is National Principals Month, and we’re proud to recognize our incredible leaders here in the New Glarus School District – Dr. Laura Eicher, Dr. Jeff Eichelkraut, and Jeff Worzella. 🎉
Thank you for your dedication, leadership, and the countless ways you support our students, staff, and community every single day. We appreciate all that you do! 👏💙

Our freshmen got some great real-world advice today from a few of our very own parents who stopped in to talk about career exploration! 🌎✨ From soft skills and networking to remembering to have fun along the way, their wisdom was inspiring. One reminder stood out: “Go out and see the world—and know there will be 2,277 people in this town welcoming you back with open arms.” 💙
A big thank you to our guest speakers:
Lanee Maclean (medical/education field)
Jeff Ness (medical field)
Cari Muggenberg (accounting/business field)
Nate Sidwell (military/piloting)
What an awesome opportunity for our students to learn from the best—our community! 👏

📚 Big smiles at New Glarus Elementary! Dr. Eicher had the chance to show one of our students how the school’s book vending machine works. What a fun way to spark excitement for reading! 💙
