La Farge School District - Home of the Wildcats

Good Morning, Wildcats! As we continue to plan for our elementary students' potential virtual education, any families that foresee internet access being an issue should reach out to Mr. Slack at (608) 625-0125.

Reminder: Staff Inservice and no school for Elementary students Monday, Oct 12. Staff Inservice and no School for MS/HS students Friday, Oct 16.

Updated information released this afternoon from the Vernon County Health Department is included in the graphic below. No changes will be made to our Instructional Model for the week of October 12th. Middle School and High School students will continue to learn virtually, and Elementary students will continue to learn in the building. Case counts in Vernon County have been increasing at alarming rates. Elementary families are advised to consider that a change in instructional model may be made for the week of October 19th, as case counts are continuing to rise at alarming rates. An update will be made on the afternoon of Thursday, October 15. Our priority remains the health and safety of our staff and students, and we want nothing more than to have all of our students and staff working and learning together in our classrooms. #StaySafeandHealthy #EveryStudentEveryDay
