Jefferson PTO held a Penny War, Labels for Education, and Coke Rewards competition January 26 – January 30, 2015.  Jefferson Elementary teachers and staff volunteered to take part in this event where the losing teacher would get pied at a general assembly Friday, February 13, 2015.

The students really enjoyed contributing and predicting which teacher would get a pie in the face.  In the end, Mrs. Klawitter, Ms. Schwantes, and Ms. Strieff were our lucky participants.  This event earned approximately $240.

Special thank you the staff that volunteered and PTO members, Becky Kikkert and Amanda Benzing for managing this event.

The schools were recognized during a special Oct. 13 ceremony at the State Capitol in Madison hosted by Deputy State Superintendent Mike Thompson. Pictured with Thompson, from left: Mrs. Higgins, 2^nd Grade Teacher and Mrs. Klawitter, Principal  Jefferson Elementary.
