Today as well, the decision has been made to relocate all scheduled outdoor summer school classes to indoors. We are monitoring the air quality situation and will assess whether it is safe to resume outdoor classes on Friday. Thank you!
Dear Parents and Guardians,
In response to the recent Air Quality Advisory issued by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, we have made the decision to relocate all outdoor summer school classes scheduled for today, June 28th, indoors. The Air Quality Advisory will remain in effect until noon on Thursday, June 29th, and it is strongly recommended children refrain from participating in physical outdoor activities during this time.
The health and safety of students is our top priority. We are monitoring the air quality situation and will assess whether it is safe to resume outdoor classes on Thursday.
We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
Thank you for your continued support.

Good Morning GSD Families,
After consulting with Riteway Bus Company and local municipalities this morning, we have decided to proceed with a regularly scheduled school day today, Thursday, February 23rd. Bus routes may take longer than usual to get to their stops and schools this morning because of road conditions. Please exercise patience as our bus drivers are working to ensure safe travel.
If you decide to keep your child home today, we ask that you call your child’s school office to notify them. Thank you for your patience and understanding over the past couple days as we have navigated the weather and travel conditions for students and staff.

Dear GSD Families,
We have been monitoring the weather continuously today and have been updated by the National Weather Service on the most current weather conditions as of 3:57 p.m. The most severe weather is anticipated between 3:00 p.m. today and 6:00 a.m. tomorrow. We have contacted local municipalities and public works on road conditions for morning travel and asked them to ensure plowing and salt for the current winter mix.
We intend to have school tomorrow, Thursday, February 23rd. We will continue to monitor the weather through the night, and I will be on a 3:45 a.m. National Weather Service webinar tomorrow morning to solidify whether to hold or cancel school. If the weather predictions change, school cancellation will happen by 5:15 a.m. with a call and email to all families and staff.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate Wisconsin's unique extended winter weather.
Dr. Chris Reuter
Superintendent
Germantown School District
Good Morning Germantown School District Families,
Due to inclement weather conditions, the decision has been made to CANCEL school today, Wednesday, February 22. There will be no before or after school activities today or virtual learning for students.
We will continue to monitor tomorrow’s weather and provide updates if there will be any cancellations.
Thank you for understanding the need to cancel school and ensure the safety of our students and staff.

PLEASE NOTE: Thursday's lunch menu items will be served on Monday. View the updated menu at https://gsdwi.nutrislice.com/.
February 15th was School Resource Officer Appreciation Day🚔, and we would like to extend our thanks and appreciation to two familiar faces across the district, SRO Toni Olson and SRO Kevin Laux.
Collectively, they have over 35 years of experience in law enforcement. As SROs, their role is multifaceted and ultimately bridges the gap between law enforcement and our schools.
While no day for them is the same, they often work closely with each school's administration, guidance counselors, and social workers assisting students with a variety of situations. They regularly take time to speak in classes, be present in the halls and lunchrooms, and attend sporting events and school activities. Both are on the GSD Safety Committee and organize school lockdowns, safety drills, and staff safety training. One of their favorite parts about the jobs is being there for the students. While their role is to enforce laws, they work hard to build trusted relationships with students and parents and be seen as a person to turn to in times of need.
Thank you for all you do!
