The Pewaukee School District Board of Education meeting on November 25, 2024, highlighted innovative educational initiatives at Pewaukee Lake Elementary (PLE) under the theme "Pure Imagination." The meeting began with roll call and the adoption of the agenda, followed by a presentation from staff members about the school's creative projects.

Brian Siegel, Beth Ingersoll, and teachers Trish Son and Karen Maderski shared details about the "Pure Imagination" theme, inspired by Willy Wonka. They discussed various activities designed to engage students' creativity and foster a sense of community. Notably, all students received themed t-shirts, funded by local businesses, ensuring inclusivity for every child.

The presentation emphasized the importance of imagination in education, with teachers encouraging students to explore their creativity through various projects.
