Items can be dropped off throughout the weekend. Bins are by the front doors of the school. All food will be picked up and delivered to the food pantry on Monday, April 20. Thank you.

In the midst of our uncertain times I wanted to share some fun pictures. Darwin our turtle has moved into his new habitat. Thanks to Jeff Magnus at Aquatic Specialty for donating a 55 gallon tank and stand. Many staff, students, and parents have donated time and money to his move. The cleaning
process required special smelling equipment for the students 😂#bettertogether #FontanaPride

Dear Families,
Governor Tony Evers has issued a statewide closure of all schools in Wisconsin. We will close after school on Wednesday, March 18, 2020 and tentatively reopen on April 6, 2020. The closure will include cancellation of all school related activities and childcare.
Teachers will be sending information for virtual learning, and some may send paper work as well.
The Department of Public Instruction is working on guidance for schools, and it remains unclear if there will be any lost instructional days forgiven by the state. More information will be made available as soon as updates are received. Please call our office or contact administration with any questions/concerns.
Respectfully,
Mark Wenzel, Administrator [email protected]
Steve Torrez, Principal

Hello parents. Fontana Joint 8 School District is working with all local health agencies and continually reviewing information regarding COVID-19. We will be taking a proactive approach during this time and we will cancel all field trips and activities outside of Fontana until further notice. We will revisit our plans and activities on a continuous basis and we will keep everyone informed as information becomes available through local and federal health agencies.
The Fontana Fire Department came through again early this morning to confirm our school is safe and ready for students. We look forward to seeing all of our students and families back at school! We are so grateful to St. Benedict’s, our local fire/police, staff and all our community partners for keeping our school safe! Happy Thursday!
