Washington March Update

On Friday, March 17, Washington's 4th and 5th grade students put on a fantastic Spring Sing performance under the direction of Mrs.Troxel. Pirates, the Musical entertained students and staff in the morning and Washington families in the afternoon. Congrats on a job well done by all!!

Washington held Camp Wash in celebration of our 7 Mindsets program which is in its first year of programming. Students earned this fun morning by displaying hundreds of examples of the first 4 Mindsets we have been learning about. Grade levels had the opportunity to experience various 'camping-themed' activities such as; crafts, campfire singing, and a fun obstacle course in the gym. We are not sure who had more fun....our students or staff!

Mrs. Rettinger's fifth grade class celebrated Pi day playing “pie in the face” to study for their social studies test. They also had a pie raffle and could earn tickets to take home a pie by being respectful, responsible, and safe.

The Whitewater Unified School District is excited to partner with Fort HealthCare Behavioral Health in offering virtual mental health services at your students' school! This service will allow students to meet with a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, Angela Schuldies, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC. Angela provides medication management for treatment of mental health needs. Students will use a confidential room in the school building during the school day for their scheduled video visit appointment. Parent/legal guardian consent and participation in treatment is required, but can be done virtually as well!

To learn more about this exciting new partnership and determine if this could be a good fit for your student, please call Fort HealthCare Behavioral Health at (920) 563-9542 to schedule a date and time.
