Thank you to students and staff at R.E.A.L. School for coming to talk to our 5th graders about what they are all about. Great to have one of their bands here to play for the kids and show off some of their 3D printed projects.
Remember that the school choice window opens up soon.
Hello Wadewitz Famlies.
I wanted to send out a reminder that parking spots in the circle located near the 4K enterence are reserved for famlies from certain classes. We are having many families utilize this space which is not allowing famlies who need that enterence to use it.
4K famlies must park on the street and walk to the enterence to pick up and drop off their kiddos. If you have any questions about this, please reach out to the office.
Thanks everyone and enjoy the long weekend!

Hello Wadewitz Families. We are so excited to welcome all the students back to school tomorrow. I just wanted to send a few reminders.
1. Per the district policy, all cell phones must be put away during school hours.
2. Any families that wish to enter the building must check in with a photo id at the main office. This includes the first day and walking students down to their classrooms. Unless there is a major reason to walk your kiddos down to class, we ask that you leave them at the front door and we will make sure they need to go where they need to.
The front door will open at 8:17 tomorrow morning and we can't wait to welcome everyone back. Enjoy the last night of summer!
School starts September 1 - make sure you're ready! Check out this important Back-to-School information.
Starting school doesn't have to be scary. From A to Z and everything in between, we have everything you need to know about sending your child to kindergarten all in one place!
This year we had 3 staff retire from Wadewitz. Assistant Principal Sharri Vandehey, Title 1 teacher Jane Hearn and Special Education Educational Assistant Cindy Andersen. All of them have had very different journeys that have lead them to the same place in their careers. And all have had a lasting impact on not only the Wadewitz community, but Racine as a whole. We are all better because of them. Please join me in thanking them for their service and wishing them all the best as a new chapter begins!
Good Morning Wadewitz Familes attending the 5th Grade Completion Ceremony. today. Just a reminder that seeting is limited. As a result, we will not be checking younger students out of class to attend. If you wish to check your younger students out after the ceremony is complete, you can do so in the main office.
Thanks everyone and see you soon!

As reading scores in Wisconsin continue to decline, we have made noticeable gains at Racine Unified!
A renewed focus on early literacy has put our change in Reading Achievement on an upward trajectory for 3rd-8th-grade students since 2023. During that same time, the average of similar districts has fallen and leveled off.
We have several events going on tonight at Wadewitz. We have our PTA Pasta Dinner and Bake Sale going on from 4-6:30. There will also be several raffle baskets. The PTA is trying to fund a new Wadewitz Mascot.
At the same time we have our science and art show going on. This is free for famlies to attend. We will have guest presenters from the Racine Art Museum.
And finally at 6 pm we will have our Wadewitz Has Talent Show. This also is free for families to attend.
If you have not already been able to do so, come and check out the construction progress. Hope to see everyone there.
