The purpose of the Herb Kohl Teacher Fellowship program is to recognize and support teaching excellence and innovation in the State of Wisconsin, USA. Our goal is to support teachers in the pursuit of their unrealized goals for their classrooms or professional development. Annually, the Foundation awards one hundred Wisconsin teachers with $6,000 Kohl Fellowship grants, and each Kohl Fellowship recipient's school receives a matching $6,000 grant. Recipients' professional accomplishments are celebrated at a recognition luncheon in the spring. Wisconsin's religious and independent schools receive a proportionate number of the total fellowships awarded each year.
To be eligible to compete for a fellowship, a teacher must be nominated by a:
* parent
* teacher
* student
* community member, or
* school administrator
Classroom teachers in Pre-K through grade 12 who plan to continue teaching in their current capacity for at least the following year are eligible for nomination.
Nomination Form - Nominations are due October 13.
The nomination form can be found on the following website, under Religious and Independent School Teachers - http://www.kohleducation.
A Harmann Studios photographer will be at St. John on Friday, October 23 to re-take school pictures, beginning at 9:30 AM.
If anyone would like a retake, you need to complete your order (with the Retake box checked and $5.00) online as indicated on your order sheet received on picture day. This puts your student on a list to get a retake. This needs to be done ahead of time, NOT ON RETAKE DAY.
There is a $5.00 charge for retakes.

Due to the state of the times that we are living in, as well as the results of the survey that was sent out to all attendees, the auction for this year will be moved from in person at The Osthoff, to online, just like the May mini auction.

From September 21-October 2, 2020, our students in grades K-8 will be taking the MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) Tests again. Tests such as these are among the most important tools we have for evaluating individual student academic progress and our curriculum as a whole. These tests can identify strengths and weaknesses and determine which areas, if any, a student may need extra help and in which areas he or she excels. Consider spending a few minutes talking with your child about the purpose and importance of these tests in a way that will ease any anxiety that he or she might have. Encourage your child to do their best, take the test seriously, but not to worry about the results. Each child is a unique gift from God and has value far beyond simple academic evaluations. For each testing day, please ensure that your child gets plenty of sleep, eats a good breakfast, and wears comfortable school appropriate attire.
As we navigate back to school plans and the feelings that surround this, MHA would like to offer our community a space to find support. We are honored to provide our Wellness & Compassion Circles, which allow participants a chance to share challenges, voice concerns, and find a community of support as we work through our current world and the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. These strength-based discussions provide a safe and relaxed atmosphere, and have been helpful to other organizations in our community who have been impacted by COVID-19. We are here for you and happy to support wellness within your school community!
