​Hello Fontana Parents, We are so grateful for your partnership in education, and this last quarter is just more evidence of the great team we have here in Fontana between parents, students, and staff. While we are proud of the transition and hard work completed during virtual learning, we also realize there are plenty of areas for improvement. Your voice, as parents, is vital to our continuous improvement and success as a learning community. Please take a minute or two to complete the survey (link below). We look forward to hearing from you as we continuously work to improve our school!! Thank you, and please call our office or email storrez@fontana.k12.wi.us with any questions/concerns. https://forms.gle/eWHNymh6g7eJ7YNE7 Steve view image

We will have staff lined up from our school and down the sidewalk toward Blue Heaven Ice Cream. Please drive through and let our staff send off this school year in style. Popsicles will be handed out to keep with our traditions!! We hope to see you all there. 8. 8th grade promotion ceremony will be July 24th at 7pm in hopes of having a small, in person, ceremony.
