Busy having fun in Mrs. Breunig's 4K classroom. #spsdlearns #togetherwesoar #togetherweplay
More choice time happening in Miss Pugh's room. #togetherwesoar #togetherweplay #spsdlearns
Choice time, AKA free time, AKA play time, is a BIG part of our Bridges classrooms. So many social and emotional skills are practiced, as well as academic skills. Check out a few of the choices in Mrs. Wipperfurth's class. #togetherwesoar #togetherweplay #spsdlearns
Paul Bunyan came to visit Ms. Hahn's 2nd-grade class today and made some delicious flapjacks (pancakes) to celebrate the conclusion of their Fairy Tales and Tall Tales unit. In fact, all the 2nd graders are getting to celebrate with flapjacks. DELICIOUS! #spsdlearns #ogetherwesoar
Mrs. Diaz-Tegen's 2nd graders reviewed continents and oceans, as well as making some volcano landforms out of playdoh...ka boom! #spsdlearns #togetherwesoar
Yesterday, Mrs. Volp's first graders did a super fun activity where each student got to build an apple trapper. The goal was to build something to reach apples on a tree that were too far away to grab. Once they were able to grab it, they then had to add it to the basket! They were only given paper and tape!
It was so fun to watch and see all the creative ideas they had!

We are excited to welcome new staff members to the Sauk Prairie School District…
Meet Robyn Fremont, Math Interventionist for Bridges Elementary School. Robyn was born and raised in Hawaii and came to Wisconsin for college. She has a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education with a minor in Special Education from the University of Wisconsin La Crosse.
“I knew that the career I chose would have something to do with youth. Then after taking a few intro courses in education, I really found my passion. My experience coaching volleyball at various levels from 10U to HS Varsity made for an easy transition to skills within the classroom where I was a special education teacher for 13 years. I have a strong passion for building up students as a whole and helping them along their journey to engaging in math. Sauk Prairie is a district with similar values to my own and it is in a strong community with many ties to make you feel like family. I'm excited to start my new journey with you all!”
Robyn, her husband Josh, and step-daughter Charlotte love to go on adventures outside. She has two cats- Rosie and Tigger who are both cuddle bugs. She has been playing volleyball since age 5 and loves the game. Robyn loves crafting and enjoys making costumes for Halloween.
Welcome to Sauk Prairie, Robyn! #togetherwesoar #bridgeselementary
We are excited to welcome new staff members to the Sauk Prairie School District…
Meet Kristen Arsenault, Reading and Math Interventionist for Bridges Elementary School and Merrimac Community School. Kristen has a Bachelors Degree from Northern Michigan University and a Masters from Grand Valley State. “As far back as I can remember I wanted to be a teacher. I thoroughly enjoy working with kids and find value in guiding them along their educational journey.” Kristen and her husband relocated to Wisconsin about two years ago and really love the warm hospitality of the area. She enjoys crocheting, hiking, traveling and volunteering with her registered therapy dog Louie. Welcome to Sauk Prairie, Kristen! #togetherwesoar #saukprairieschools
It's August and that means everyone is starting to get ready for school. That includes our OLE - Outdoor Learning Environment. Some staff and kids started getting things ready....wow that's a lot of weeds. HUGE THANKS to these hard workers! #togetherwesoar
School Supply Drop Off is right around the corner!
A first-grade student was moved to tears of joy as she read a farewell card from her fourth-grade buddy. "I really loved being your buddy and am glad that we got to work together. I hope to see you again!" the card read.
Throughout the school year, first-grade classes from Bridges Elementary paired up with fourth-grade classes from Grand Ave. Each month, the classes took turns visiting each other's schools, engaging in activities like games, paper airplane flying, puzzles, and crafts. These interactions allowed fourth graders to act as teachers and role models, while the first graders enjoyed one-on-one attention.
Bethany Hultgren hosted a final celebration at Ruth Culver's Library in Prairie du Sac, for four buddy classes to gather one last time. The event featured blanket tents, soft pillows, and cozy spaces for the children to read together, marking the end of a wonderful learning experience.
The hope is that these bonds will continue, and the students will reconnect in the community, possibly meeting again as freshmen and seniors in high school.
Congratulations!!
Kindergarten ABC countdown continues... O (oreos), P (paper airplanes & puzzles), Q (20 questions), and R (rock-paper-scissors tournament)...oh my! #spsdlearns #togetherwesoar
Mrs. Larson's first-grade classroom spent some time recording plants in the OLE (Outdoor Learning Environment) just like Lewis and Clark did while they traveled west. #spsdlearns #togetherwesoar
