1st Brigade Band - Civil War History Music Presentation
by: Danielle Werkheiser
Our 5th-grade students have a unique opportunity to learn about history through a live performance by the 1st Brigade Band, a Civil War reenactment group based in Watertown. According to their website, "In 1864, eighteen men from the Brodhead Brass Band enlisted in the Union Army and became the 1st Brigade Band, 3rd Division, 15th Army Corps. The 'Tradition of Excellence' that these men established more than 150 years ago continues today." We are excited to bring the band to our school in May. To make this experience possible, we kindly request your support in fundraising. We aim to raise $1000 to cover the expenses of bringing the 1st Brigade Band to our school on May 1st. Any contribution, big or small, would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your consideration and support! Sincerely, WIS 5th Grade Teachers

Project Graduation 2026
by: Barbara Salverson
Project Graduation is the culminating celebration hosted by parents and the community for the Waunakee Community High School graduating class. Studies have shown that the highest number of teen drunk driving fatalities occur on graduation nights. Project Graduation is the alternative to keep our kids safe. Graduation is a time of celebration, high hopes, and lasting memories. Project Graduation is a SUBSTANCE FREE party for WCHS seniors held at the high school following the graduation ceremony on June 7th, 2026. It will run from 6:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. It boasts a variety of activities and entertainment including a hypnotist, caricature artist, volleyball tournament, and much more. In addition, food is served and prizes are awarded at the end of the night. As always, adult volunteers will chaperone the event. We hope you will demonstrate your support of this event by making a financial contribution. We are grateful that the Waunakee community and surrounding area businesses have traditionally endorsed our efforts to provide a safe environment in which the senior class can celebrate graduation night together. Thank you in advance for helping continue this endeavor!
