A Note from the Principal
Dear Thorson Families,
Happy first day of fall! It definitely feels like the seasons are changing today. Please make sure to send a coat or jacket to school daily with your child, as we go outside multiple times during the school day. Thank you!
We are continuing to solidify our school routines and are working on being Respectful, Responsible, and Safe. As a reminder, most Fridays are Thorson Spirit Wear days and students are encouraged to wear their Thorson spiritwear or blue/white! Please join us in showing our Jaguar Pride tomorrow by doing this!
If you were unable to attend the Superintendent Meet and Greet session that was held at Thorson this week, there are three more sessions coming up next week at Parkview, Webster, and Westlawn. Please see below for the details and consider attending.
Tomorrow, September 23, is our first EARLY RELEASE DAY. Students in K-5 will be dismissed at 1:45pm. 4K will run a modified schedule, with the morning 4K session running from 8:50-10:35 a.m. and the afternoon session from 12:00-1:45 p.m. Please plan accordingly and remember to send a note or call the front office (262-376-6700) if your child has a change of going home plans due to the early dismissal.
Happy Weekend!
Sincerely,
Angela Little, Principal
Scott May, Assistant Principal

Social Studies Update
A team of teachers at our school are conducting a short-term trial of a new Social Studies resource called: TCI. Last year, a District team considered a few resources that they felt could meet Cedarburg Social Studies Standards, and based upon some preliminary review believed the TCI should be explored more closely along with Native People of Wisconsin. Additionally grade 4 teachers will be exploring Wisconsin, Our State, Our Story. Thus, at our school the following teachers will be using this resource for September and October and will be implementing one unit of study. Here's ________(school name) Trial Team (select just your team from below):
Westlawn: Melissa Fry, Angie Sheppard, Ann Ingham, Meghan Reilly and Charlotte Butzler
Parkview: Ashley Miller, Jennifer French, Ben Gauger, and Steve Keller
Thorson: Erin Staffaroni, Molly Houben, Jack Brooks
Webster: Mike Johnson, Andrew Mindham, Kyle Peterson
We are excited at the prospects of updating our Social Studies curriculum. More information to follow as the District Trial Team continues its research in this important area of the curriculum.
