Prior to Christmas, 3rd & 4th year #WatertownWay German students learned how to read directions for baking and making crafts in German. They used this skill to build gingerbread houses in anticipation of the holidays!
These Douglas first grade friends had "SNOW ❄️" much fun being back together after winter break!! Fun with friends is the #WatertownWay!
The #WatertownWay Pizazz Elementary Show Choir recently had a choreography clinic with University of Northwestern - St. Paul students Megan Beine (Mrs. Beine’s daughter) and Caleb Merwin. Megan and Caleb worked with the Pizazzers, offering advice and feedback on their choreography and general performance techniques.
Congrats to these GRRRREAT Schurz staff members for their hard work during the month of December! They have earned themselves VIP parking and a special pass for a day! #WatertownWay
The Student Leadership Team from Lincoln STEM organized a holiday food drive for the Watertown Food Pantry. They set a goal of 500 items to be collected over nine days. That goal was surpassed in four days, so they raised the goal to 1,000 items. THAT goal was reached with a couple of days to go, so ANOTHER goal of 1,500 items was set. In all, the students collected over 1,700 items over the course of nine days! The Watertown Food Pantry was very thankful for their donations, and the Watertown Fire Department came to help pick up and deliver the items. Way to go, Lincoln STEM Pandas! #lincolnSTEM #studentleadership #WatertownWay #seasonofgiving #studentsmakingadifference

Here's a look back at a special memory our LEAP students have from the beginning of November!
Jack, a student's pet ball python, came to visit each classroom. Students were able to ask questions and learn all there is to know about ball pythons. Many of our #WatertownWay students were excited to pet Jack, too! 🐍
A big thank you to our WHS musicians for sharing your talents with us this holiday season!
There's been a lot of excitement in Mr. Stocks's room at LEAP as the 4th and 5th graders have been working very hard on a variety of science projects.
Students were able to pick the subject of their science projects, which added to the fun. Some of the subjects chosen were paleontology, astrology, volcanoes, and archeology!
Excellent job, 4th and 5th graders! 👏 #WatertownWay
Upper-level German students baked “Zimtsterne” (Cinnamon Stars) as part of a unit on learning to read and write recipes. They discovered firsthand some of the differences between “cookie cultures” in Germany and the United States! YUM!
Congratulations to the WHS Philharmonia and Concert Orchestras and the Symphonic and Concert Bands on their outstanding Instrumental Winter Concert!
Special thanks to directors Mrs. Hafenstein, Mr. Martin and Mr. LaDew.
It was a great concert and a great way to celebrate the holiday season! ✨

Have you ever seen gingerbread houses with a math twist?!
Mrs. Weinheimer's 2/3 class at Lincoln STEM created gingerbread houses that show different arrays of candies. Then, they wrote and solved multiplication problems to find the total number of candies on each side. These mathematicians even took it one step further and identified the repeated addition sentence that goes with each multiplication fact.
Our #WatertownWay students sure are stretching their brains while having fun! 🤩🤩
🥳 CONGRATULATIONS to our #WatertownWay Trimester 1 Honor Roll students at WHS and Endeavor Charter School!

🎶❤️ Music is good for the #WatertownWay soul. ❤️🎶
WUSD elementary music classes have been studying composer Pytor Tchaikovsky this month. Mrs. Beine’s 2/3 classes at Lincoln STEM had fun doing a bucket drumming activity to Tchaikovsky's “Trepak” with student teacher, Mr. Schaffrick. 🥁
The Douglas Student Council planned a spirit week to spread holiday cheer at school! Check out these Douglas Tigers who are "Dreaming of a White Christmas" in their PJs! ❄️

Ladies and Gentlemen - Grab your popcorn 🍿 and turn up the volume 🔊 because we have a special performance coming your way! 🌟
WUSD elementary music students have been learning about Pytor Tchaikovsky, their composer of the month, by studying several pieces from the Nutcracker Ballet. We hope you enjoy this parachute performance to Tchaikovsky's "Trepak" presented by one of Mrs. Beine's second-grade classes!
