SCHOOL ZONE SAFETY
The Edgerton Police Department along with the Edgerton School District takes your children’s safety seriously and so must you. With the beginning of the new school year I would like to remind parents that we understand how congested and frustrating schools zones can become in the morning and afternoon when you’re dropping off or picking up children. However, poor driving habits, parking violations and aggressive driving near the schools create an unsafe and dangerous environment for our children. We are asking all parents to do their part in promoting safe driving school zones to ensure children arrive at school safely.
To help reduce congestion and provide a safer environment please keep these points in mind when dropping off or picking up your children:
• The bus stop is for buses only.
• Walk your child to school when possible.
• Use the school bus system when possible.
• Drop off/pick up children a short distance away from school when possible. This will help alleviate congestion around the school.
• Once your child is out of the car and safely on the sidewalk vacate the area to make room for others parents to drop off their children.
• Do not double park to drop off your child.
• Obey the parking and traffic signs while on the school campus, especially the designated “no parking areas” marked with painted yellow curbs.
• Be mindful of the school staff and crossing guards. They are there for your child’s safety.
• Be a “Good Neighbor” by being mindful of the residents who live near the school.
As part of our commitment to ensuring the children’s safety, the Edgerton Police Department will be actively enforcing traffic and parking laws around the school campus.
Please drive responsibly and conscientiously. Let’s keep the safety of our children in mind and have a good school year
Sincerely,
Chief Bob Kowalski
Edgerton Police Dept.
Dr. Dennis Pauli
Superintendent Edgerton School District

This event is an opportunity for YVES families to get together and connect prior to the start of the school year. If interested, there is a YCC Meeting after the picnic that you are invited and encouraged to attend. The picnic will be from 5:30-6:30PM, with the YCC meeting starting at 6:30PM.

Edgerton High School Pool - (This is a correction from a previous post)
Last day for open lap/swim is June 2nd.
This summer the pool we will undergoing routine maintance and painting.
The 2nd graders at Primary community School and Yahara had the final Book Bowl competition. The two teams that were competing were named the Titanic Cats and Rainbow Readers. The score was close but the Titanic Cats came out in first place and Rainbow Readers were 2nd. It was a great celebration of reading!
The 2nd graders at Yahara decided to take advantage of the lovely sun and do math logic puzzles outside. They worked together in small groups.
We're excited to share some really special work our students did this year! Check out our two new school anthems for Community Elementary School and Yahara Valley Elementary School. We are so proud of our students and our schools. Thank you to the WEpac and the donors that supported making this project happen.
