Congratulations to the Wautoma High School Choir State Solo & Ensemble Students on their performances on April 29th at UW-Oshkosh. The WHS Honors Choir scored a 1 on their Madrigal Performance; Addie DeMars scored a 1 on both of her solos; and Reagan DeMars scored a 2 on her solo.
Additionally, as part of the festival, the Exemplary Performance Recognition Project expands recognition of outstanding performers at the WSMA State Solo & Ensemble Festival. State festival adjudicators select the most exceptional performances at each of the festival campuses through a two-step process. Throughout the festival day, adjudicators nominate events for the award. Addie DeMars was nominated for BOTH of her solos and the Honors Choir was nominated for their madrigal performance.
At the end of the festival day, the adjudicator may select up to two award recipients from the nominated events in their festival site. Addie DeMars' is a recipient of WSMA's 2023 Exemplary Performance Recognition Award for her Musical Theatre solo performance.
“I am very proud of our performances and recognitions from this past weekend, and it was a good showing of Wautoma student talent!” said WHS Choir Director Mr. Dubnicka.

Did you know it is School Lunch Hero Week?
Let's celebrate our wonderful WASD lunch men and women! Most of these wonderful school lunch heroes also volunteer in the Hornet Market each week. They go over and beyond every single day, sometimes moving from school to school or doing cooking jobs they don't usually do to keep our students fed ! They are true heroes! Thank you for all you do!

The federal government has announced the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency will end May 11. In Wisconsin, case numbers, hospitalizations, and deaths from COVID-19 are significantly lower than they were during the surge in late 2021 and early 2022, and the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) has been making plans to move away from an emergency response to the virus.

Thank you for all you have done and continue to do each day for the students, staff, and families throughout the Wautoma Area School District!


The Riverview Character Education Committee recently presented April’s Community Character Trait Award Bank First and BMO Harris Bank for Integrity. Bank First and BMO Harris Bank are banks in our local community. Employees at the bank show integrity in many ways. Integrity means be-ing honest even when no one is looking. Banks need integrity in their employees because they work with money every single day. Other things they need to do are count money correctly, keep track of the money, and make sure it gets to the place it needs to be. Sometimes they do these jobs as a team and sometimes they do these jobs alone. When employees show integri-ty, adults in our community will trust the bank and want to save their money there. It’s im-portant that employees who work at banks also keep people’s information confidential, which means keeping a secret and not sharing people’s addresses and phone numbers. Working with large amounts of money, showing teamwork, and building trust in the community are all the reasons why BMO Harris Bank and Bank First are a perfect fit for our Community Character Trait Award.


Congratulations, Alianna!


Yesterday, the Redgranite Student Council celebrated the students and staff that had birthdays in April and the students that moved into the district after their birthdays! Happy birthday, everyone!
