Yesterday, elementary students and their families came together for an exciting evening of hands-on learning and exploration hosted by Curtis Strange Elementary School! 🔬 🎨 🥼

From engaging science experiments and math challenges to interactive activities and more, families had the opportunity to learn, experiment and discover together.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening a success! We love seeing our students’ curiosity and excitement for learning come to life.

4K students in Ms. Turcios's class at the Kenosha School of Language have been exploring how trees grow, the parts of a tree, and the foods that come from trees. They also brought their learning home with a special family project: creating their very own family trees! ❤️

Families were invited to present their projects together or share a video with the class, and all 34 families participated!

The completed family trees now fill the school hallway, giving students a chance to proudly share their families, name their loved ones, and tell the stories behind the trees they created together.

It's a wonderful example of how strong family partnerships enrich classroom learning and help cultivate a lifelong love of learning.

Life is not a one-size-fits-all journey, and neither is school for our students! That’s why KUSD offers families a variety of schools to meet the needs of all learners in grades 4K-12. Each student is assigned to a boundary school based on their address, but families can also apply to any of KUSD’s choice schools.

To help determine which school is the best fit for your child(ren), we invite you to join us for the open houses below that appeal to your family. Topics include each school's programming and how to apply or register for the 2027-28 school year.

Brass Community School students in Ms. Gordon's kindergarten class brought the beloved story "Room on the Broom" to life through a meaningful project connecting literacy, phonics, friendship and belonging.

Through the story, students explored the importance of building healthy friendships, showing kindness and including others both inside and outside our classroom. They extended their learning into the phonics curriculum by using magical spells to build their names (iggety, ziggity, zaggety, zoom-out rose a truly magnificent kid) while identifying and recognizing letters in their names and those of their classmates.

Each day, they celebrated a few students' names, making learning engaging, personal and exciting. Students eagerly asked, "Is there room on the broom for a kid like me?" The class responded, "Yes!" and then placed themselves on the classroom broom.

This project not only strengthened foundational literacy skills but also reinforced the powerful message that every child is valued, included, and belongs. Because in their classroom, there is ALWAYS room on the broom for everyone! 🧹
