All Middle and High School students should be checking their school email account daily. Teachers are noticing that some students aren't doing so. Emails from your teachers contain important information for your schoolwork and are a way for them to make sure you're doing well.

Attn: Middle schoolers interested in participating in the UW-LaCrosse Science & Math Expo in May. They are doing a virtual Expo! Instead of an abstract and a trifold they want you to create a Power Point/Google Slide OR a pdf of your experiment, research, or math game. Let Mrs. Plonka know by April 22 (next Wednesday) at plonjil@ithaca.k12.wi.us if you want to participate or have any questions. She'll get you more details on what to include in your Slides/pdf.

More talent from our artists! Alexis and Autumn surprised their mom with amazing art work. Addyson posed with her Family Coat of Arms. Memphis showed off his Family Coat of Arms, too. Art is a great outlet to relax or take a break from book work. Keep up the creativity!

Here is the survey to complete for next week's distribution from April 20th until 24th. This breakfast and lunch distribution is FREE to all families in the Ithaca district regardless of financial status. It is available for anyone in the household under 18 or still in high school. There is a new survey each week.
Ithaca staff will be providing pickup from 4-6pm Monday, April 20-Friday, April 24. A new survey is required each week. Access this week's survey here or at the end of this message. Complete the survey by the end of this week, Friday, April 17th.
We ask that the front seat of the vehicle be vacant so that the food bag can be placed on the seat. This will limit if not prevent completely any contact between the passengers and the food server. The drive-thru is set up on the elementary side of the building. Watch for signs.
Food service will continue through the closure. Updates will be broadcast on WRCO, the school website and the Ithaca School District Facebook page.

Ms. Durkin was missing her students and seeing them when they complete art with her. Receiving pictures of their completed projects is bringing her big smiles. We've got great artists! Easton created some Easter art. Tanner painted his door windows. Jacey and Briggs said it all.
