Student representative: homecoming, academic trips and extracurricular wins highlighted
Summary
The student representative reported on homecoming events at Elkhorn High, extracurricular awards and activities across district schools, including a football win, trips to trade and state events, and upcoming elementary festivities.
The Elkhorn Area School District’s student representative gave a report on Oct. 13 summarizing recent student activities across district schools, including homecoming events, competitions and field trips.
The representative recapped homecoming week at Elkhorn High School, noting one-act plays (seniors won), activity-day events, a powder-puff game (the juniors beat the seniors), a pep rally and a parade; the high school football team won 27–23 against Burlington. The student said the homecoming dance concluded the week.
The report also described district achievements and trips: district students attended a World Dairy Expo contest where a district entrant earned the top individual score among 434 contestants in dairy-cattle evaluation; middle-school technology students visited a Waukesha County tech expo to explore trades and local employers; Project Lead The Way staff recognized a middle-school teacher as an outstanding PLTW teacher; and several CCA (Career & College Academy) youth-build teams and a Western team advanced toward district or state competitions, with state competition scheduled in Madison later in October.
Elementary activities included trunk-or-treat events, pumpkin patches and classroom projects such as applesauce and sequencing exercises. The representative said Lafayette Fuel Plaza is running a promotion to donate two cents per gallon to the district education foundation when patrons use a purple-and-gold pump.
Ending: The board thanked the student representative for the update; no board action was required.
