Welcome to the New Glarus School District website.
It’s my honor to serve as the Superintendent of the New Glarus School District
and I am pleased to be part of such an exceptional organization.
“All Achieving, Always Growing” exemplifies the mission
and vision of the New Glarus School District. The district's goals focus
on student learning, while our beliefs remind us of our obligation to help
students develop good character and become critical thinkers. We are not
satisfied as an educational institution unless every child is prepared to
pursue and successfully participate in the academic or career option of their
choice.
The School District of New Glarus is an educational environment that strives to
exude excellence. Regardless of family income, ethnic background,
or educational attainment of parents, every 4K-12th grade student is
expected to perform at a Mastery Level in each of their courses. In addition, we pledge that our schools will
be safe, engaging, and will promote a culture of respect for diverse ideas and
beliefs.
Even after 160 years, the Village of New Glarus continues to
have close ties to Central Europe, giving our students a unique global
perspective. The school district takes an active role in preserving our
community history by working in partnership with civic leaders to promote our
community and to showcase our youth.
New Glarus is a wonderful district - it has outstanding
students, highly qualified and dedicated staff members, and a supportive and
generous community. I feel privileged to be your Superintendent, and want to
thank each one of you for your contribution to our children’s success. We
cannot successfully accomplish our mission without you.
