March is National Music in Our Schools Month. It’s a great time to try an instrument or sing in the choir. Did you know that UW-Whitewater’s music ensembles have performed at Lambeau Field, Carnegie Hall in New York, and other famous venues around the world?

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Ms. Erin and her husband as well as Mr. Schlimgen for their incredible work in creating a new space in our school where students and staff can reset and enjoy. Their hard work and dedication to making this vision a reality are true acts of kindness, and their efforts will positively impact our community for years to come. Thank you for making a difference!
