What Makes Our District A Great Place To Be?

Partnerships
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Education is a priority at the School District of Mauston. Our district is proud to be a lead partner in the Western STEM Consortium that is comprised of nine school districts, two higher education partners (UW-Stout and Western Technical College), Fort Mc Coy military instillation, CORD (Center for Occupational Research and Development) and several community business partners. This opportunity is made possible through an almost one million dollar U.S. Department of Education grant.

Responsive Classroom philosophy followed in the district's elementary schools stresses the importance of starting each day with a morning meeting.

Relationships
Our elementary classrooms begin each day with morning meetings. Relationships are built and nurtured as students and teachers greet one another, share news, and "warm up" for the day ahead.

4-K students love the interactive whiteboard in classrooms!

Technology
From SMART Boards, iPads, iPods, and netbooks to laptops--our district provides an array of technology to meet all educational needs.

Mauston High School's Spanish and English Teacher, Leah Luke, is named 2010 Wisconsin Teacher of the Year!

Quality Staff
The School District of Mauston is home to Wisconsin's 2010 Teacher of the Year, Leah Luke. Our dedicated teachers and staff boast many notable accomplishments including book authoring, Kohl Fellowship Scholars, and Folger Shakespeare Institute participation.

Each year our Technology and Engineering class builds a beautiful home. The students involved with the project earn credit from Western Technical College.

Academic Opportunities
Our district realizes that one size does not fit all in education--students' individualized needs are recognized and respected. Our district offers gifted and talented options, credit recovery (MALA), at-risk programs (GEDO #2), and a new project-based learning charter school (iLEAD). Course choices abound in the fine arts and career and technical education offerings in middle and high school.

Students experience music in a unique, holistic manner to provide a rich background.

Student Involvement
Our district has many opportunities for students extra curricular involvement and leadership development at all levels--Lego League, WEB (Where Everybody Belongs) Leaders, LINK Crew, full sports offerings, fine arts, FFA, FBLA, and Key Club to name just a few. Two of our students have recently been recognized as state-level officers by FFA and Key Club.
