🎄✨ *Festive Fun in Onalaska!* ✨🎄
The holiday spirit is alive and well in the Onalaska School District! Halls are decked, students are beaming, and laughter fills the air as we celebrate the most wonderful time of the year. Even the Grinch couldn’t resist the festivities—making a surprise visit (don’t worry, his heart grew three sizes while he was here!). From cheerful activities to spreading kindness, we’re closing out 2024 with joy and togetherness.
Wishing everyone a happy holiday season and a fantastic New Year! 🎅🎁❤️

A special thanks to Superintendent Mrs. Padgett for orchestrating our 2nd annual Potluck Challenge! 🍲 Staff brought their best dishes—Elementary contributed main dishes, Middle School served up sides and salads, and High School delighted us with desserts.
