Butler Middle School has a musical theatre treat for you! Save the date and grab your tickets today!

We are getting excited! Tomorrow, elementary students from across the district will perform in the annual Waukesha Sings. This year's Clinician is Margaret Jenks. Margaret currently teaches elementary music in Madison, WI. Previously, she taught at Butler Middle School and North High School here in Waukesha. In addition to her teaching duties, she is a conductor with the Madison Youth Choirs and a faculty member at Carnegie Hall in New York City. Her performing and teaching career has taken her worldwide, including performances in Germany and South Korea. The concert will begin at 5:30 PM in the Waukesha South High School auditorium and is open to the public

Congratulations to the Waukesha South mock trial team! They won the State Championship this past weekend and will now represent Wisconsin at the National High School Mock Trial Championship, Inc. in May! The Wisconsin High School Mock Trial program is funded by the Wisconsin Law Foundation, the charitable arm of the State Bar of Wisconsin, supporting law-related education and public service programs statewide. These photos perfectly capture the room's emotion, almost making it feel like we were there! #waukeshaproud #wimocktrial #mocktrial

National School Social Worker Week is March 6-10, 2023. The theme for National School Social Work Week 2023 is “We Rise.” School social workers are hardworking, caring, and gifted. They are interpreters, wayfinders, and beacons. With their help and support, together we rise. This week allows us to recognize their impactful work supporting students, families, and communities. Over the next few days the School District of Waukesha is proud to share all of our outstanding school social workers with you! #waukeshaproud #WeRise2023 #SSWW

After reviewing the latest forecast from the National Weather Service, the SDW will be closed today, February 22. There is high confidence for two plus inches of sleet and ice later this morning into the afternoon that may cause travel conditions to deteriorate quickly. Additionally, there will be no after-school activities, and we will continue to watch the weather forecast for Thursday.
