Wisconsin Education Fairs will be hosting a virtual college fair on March 10th from 3:00 - 5:00.  They will also have an Interactive Financial Aid Session and My Education, My Way presentation from 5:00 - 6:00 .  This is a great way to virtually see a lot of colleges and chat with college representatives.  Please go to wefs.org for more information or stop in Student Services.

 

Attention KHS Sophomores and Juniors-  The First of Many mentorship program pairs first-generation college students at Lawrence University with potential first-generation students at Kaukauna High School.  A first-generation college student is a college student whose parents/guardians have not completed a bachelor's degree. This program is intended to knock down barriers for students interested in pursuing a college education by providing them with a mentor and a curriculum that will cover topics including but not limited to, financial aid, college applications, selecting a major, and scholarships. Matches will meet via Zoom for approximately 30-60 minutes, once per week for approximately 8-10 weeks.


If you would like to apply to be a participant in the First of Many program, please contact Mr. Binsfeld in student services. He will work with you to complete the application.  Applications are due March 15, 2021. The program will tentatively be running from March 29th to May 24th.

 

The Fox River Valley Branch of the Wisconsin Section of American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) is offering (2) scholarships to current high school seniors.  Stop in Student Services for an application.

 

Attention Seniors:  The Pacesetters Scholarship deadline is approaching on April 16.  If you have been involved in cross country or track you are eligible to apply.

Attention all students:  Are you ready to shoot sporting clays?  Come join the team at Triple J Wing & Clay in Brillion.  You will learn to shoot a shotgun and be trained to compete in the game of sporting clays.  You will be provided an opportunity to compete.  Register on Tuesday, March 9 and Thursday, March 11 from 5-7pm at Triple J Wing & Clay in Brillion.

 

A big THANK YOU goes out to Kaukauna High School students and staff who took the time to donate blood with the Community Blood Center and NHS at one of the last two blood drives. Between both blood drives we were able to donate 13.6 gallons of blood to the local hospitals. Our donations helped 324 people in need get  blood products  to survive. 

 

A big shout out goes to the following lunch sponsors for donating delicious food for lunch donors:

 

Pagoni's Pizza

Taco Johns

Jimmy Johns 

 

Next blood drive is in April. If you want to learn more about the Gallong Grad program or how to start donating, stop in and see Mrs. Miller-Flynn.
