WI Education Convention

It Pays to Create Champions for Your Schools (Room WI Center 202 DE)

In the Winneconne Community School District, community support has translated into referenda approvals and private donations that help the school district achieve its facilities and programming improvement vision. The hallmarks of the school district’s efforts to engage the community include proactively communicating the vision for their schools, clearly articulating the district’s strengths, creating relationships with community members, and welcoming people to the planning table. We've all heard schools can't do it alone. In Winneconne, their efforts to engage the community and create champions are delivering real results.
