FREE BREAKFAST TO ALL STUDENTS!

Students in Mrs. Shepard's 6th grade class are determining when reading is fantastic and what happens when reading goes terribly wrong for them. They were put into small groups and then as a whole group, they made a master list so they can use this to overcome some of the stumbling points of reading and how to focus on what is in their control. Some reasons of why reading is difficult include when they are distracted, when seating is uncomfortable or they are reading a book too hard for them. Some reasons of why reading is not positive include when they get to choose their book, they can reread a book and when they have a personal connection to the text. We are off to a great start this year.
Wautoma Area School District bus drivers recently participated in a Human Trafficking Training, with collaboration and information from Department of Homeland Security and the Blue Campaign, and Truckers Against Trafficking.

Thank you to all our drivers for participating in this training.

When building an army to fight a crime like human trafficking, the bus industry has a key role to fill. Through their sheer numbers, extensive travels, and the nature of their jobs, members of the bus industry—commercial and school—are uniquely positioned to provide an extra set of eyes and ears for law enforcement in recovering victims and arresting traffickers.
Our bus drivers are the eyes, and ears of the road, rest stops, sporting events, tourist areas, and other places where trafficking may occur. Human Traffickers use bus terminals and bus stops as recruiting areas when they are looking for vulnerable people. Primary minors, young adults, to exploit, hence the reason why our school district is enforcing education on the 2nd largest crime in our nation!
