District Family Newsletter for September 25.

On this episode, we meet two high school English teachers and discuss what a modern English Department looks like.

Wisconsin's newest reading law, Act 20, led to an examination of South Milwaukee's curriculum and practices - many of which were already part of the practice of SDSM.

In this episode, Director of Curriculum and Instruction Christie Gajewski discusses new literacy practices this year with elementary teachers and instructional specialists.

Students safety is the most important concern at schools in South Milwaukee. Learn what happens in an emergency and what it means for parents.

We are working closely with the city and our police department on many suggestions, which will come later in the spring and into next summer.  For now, we have started with revising some traffic patterns and placing additional support outside to help students get to and from school more safely. 

Today we’re talking about the district’s new STEM program for elementary students. But in a bigger sense, we’re talking about engaging curiosity in a hands-on way to look at something and learn how it works and why – or better yet, to build something and figure out how to make it work.

I’m excited to introduce you to our STEM teachers who are on an exploration of their own – building a new program from the ground up, fueled by the natural curiosity of our youngest students.
