UPDATES & REMINDERSÂ
Facebook Information - Please note that as of June 15th, 2023 we will no longer have a Raymond School Closed Facebook page. The closed group was created to allow messaging to Raymond School Parents and Staff years ago.  As we have progressed throughout the years, we now have more effective means to alert everyone through email and text message directly from Skyward.  Please click the link to follow our public account and see the latest news from Raymond School! https://www.facebook.com/RaymondPanthers
Online registration for our current students that will be returning to Raymond School next year is now open! It only takes a few minutes, just log into your Family Access Skyward account (Skyward Family Access Link), click on the "Returning Student Registration" tab on the upper left and complete the steps to register your child for the 2023-24 school year. If you need assistance logging into your Skyward Family Access account you can find the instructions on our website (https://raymond.k12.wi.us/skyward/) Call the main office at 262-835-2929 (option #5) with any questions that you may have.
HIGH INTEREST DAY
Hello!
We are excited to have High Interest Day this year for our K-8 grade students. This is an opportunity for students to select two workshops to take part in on the afternoon of Friday, May 19th. For the first time, we are making the sign-up ALL digital. You will receive a packet in your child's folder by today with all the workshop descriptions. It is important that you fill out the form below so your child can participate in workshops that they choose. Please look over the workshop descriptions and determine your child's top 5 workshops for High Interest Day. Make sure you are looking at the correct age range/grade level for each workshop as you are making your top picks.
High Interest Day Google Form - Grades K-3
High Interest Day Google Form - Grades 4-5
High Interest Day Google Form - Grades 6-8
(6-8th grade parents, your child is filling out the form on their own in Google Classroom. Please fill out the permission slip that was sent home and return back by May 3rd - exception to those on the DC Trip).
**Filling out this form does not guarantee your child will get their top pick. We will do our best to match them with their top choices. Please have this form completed by Wednesday, May 3rd.Â
Thank you!
