Thank You to All Thank You to All

Thank you to all who came to join us for the Ice Cream Social and Pre Game Fuel Up Cookout. It was great seeing many of the families. Hopefully, you are not looking to buy ice cream in Manawa because we cleared out the gas station , grocery store, and Dollar store. We sure went through a lot of ice-cream and, of course, sprinkles. Also, shout out to parents for making pick up and drop off truly smooth and safe for our kids. Looking forward to the next week with kids and staff!

Enjoy the weekend with family and friends,

Michelle Johnson, Manawa Middle/Little Wolf High Principal

Keeping our Students and Staff Safe Keeping our Students and Staff Safe

ALICE and our Student Safety Protocol

Protecting our students and staff is one of the main focuses of our daily procedures and practice.

Student Safety Protocol Resource (Click to follow link.)

ALICE:

In the School District of Manawa, we are committed to providing the safest possible environment for our students and staff by taking proactive steps in securing our schools. We want to ensure they have a safe place to learn, work and grow. To maintain our safety standards and adapt to the societal threat of a violent intruder inside our school, we are adopting ALICE proactive strategies.


ALICE Letter

*Tools to assure a safe learning environment free from dangerous weapons, drugs, and alcohol include:


    • Search and Seizure practices aligned to policy 5771

    • Scheduled K9 unit in collaboration with Manawa PD

  • Regular safety drills practiced throughout the school year.

The Courage to Report The Courage to Report

At Manawa Little Wolf High School and Manawa Middle School, safety is our number one priority. We encourage every student and family to Speak Up and Speak Out if they experience bullying, feel unsafe, or witness a safety concern or illegal activity. Students should never feel like they have to handle a difficult situation alone. Connect with a trusted adult—a teacher, staff member, counselor, or member of our administrative team—and let us know how we can help. Families and students can also use Wisconsin’s Speak Up, Speak Out to report concerns through a safe and confidential reporting system.

Speak Up. Speak Out. Look out for one another. Together, we can keep our Wolf Pack safe.

Report a Concern: Speak Up, Speak Out Wisconsin


For emergencies or situations requiring immediate assistance, call 911.
