Those that require a fee are listed in the course descriptions.

All forms should be turned into the school by May 4, 2018. In order to register for summer school, please look through the class descriptions in this booklet and fill out the registration form at the end of the book. Last year we had a number of students sign up for summer school, but then backed out. This made it difficult as we already had staff hired to accommodate the numbers of registration. Please discuss with your child the importance of honoring the commitment to attend summer school if they register. This year swimming lessons will be during different weeks than summer school classes to avoid any conflicts that may occur. We have also added t-ball and soft toss as part of the summer school class options. The completed form may be returned to the child s teacher, to the main office or returned by mail. Please mail to Dr. Sharon Ennis, Wonewoc-Center School, 101 School Road, Wonewoc, WI 53968.
