We are excited to launch a back to school online Warrior Corner School Store option for you! As the district launched a new brand for both the school district and the high school/spirit last school year, we want you to be able to sport the newest gear. There are many options for men, women, youth, spirit, and accessories.

Click here to access our online store: https://waunakeespiritapparel23.itemorder.com/shop/home/

All items can be shipped directly to your home (shipping rates apply) or picked up at Trending Now Promotions (1120 Uniek Drive, Waunakee) at no extra cost to you. The deadline to order is Monday, September 11, at which time all orders will be processed.

Thank you for your support of our Warrior Corner Store and the Marketing Education program by shopping locally.

The Waunakee Community School District Board of Education (BOE) has initiated a search for its next Superintendent. It is important that the successful candidate be someone who has the combination of credentials, experiences, leadership skills, and personal traits that students, staff, families, and our community expect and value.

As part of the process, we are seeking input from you to help build a leadership profile outlining the professional and personal characteristics required to be successful in this role. This profile will be published as part of the job posting and used by the Board of Education to evaluate candidates.

There are two ways that you can participate to help us build this leadership profile - stakeholder focus groups and a feedback survey.

Survey

Please share your thoughts by completing the survey by September 22, 2023. All responses are anonymous. Click HERE to participate in our stakeholder feedback survey. We appreciate your participation in completing this survey and assisting us with this very important task.

Stakeholder In-Person and Virtual Engagement Meetings

BWP, Superintendent Search Consultant, will be in our school district on Wednesday, September 20, 2023. We invite our students, staff, families, and community members to participate in our stakeholder in-person or virtual engagement meetings. Your participation is appreciated.

There is a full listing of engagement meetings listed on our website. We encourage you to attend the session that is scheduled for your group (example: student, families, staff, etc.). If this time does not work for you, there are additional times that will be available for you. Please attend an engagement meeting that best fits your schedule.

Together, we are confident that we can find an exceptional leader to continue to guide our school district towards excellence. We appreciate your participation!
