Wahoo Elementary PTO
Wahoo Elementary is fortunate to have a very active Parent Teacher Organization (PTO). The PTO supports events and activities for the staff and students throughout the year and we are always looking for new, creative suggestions! Volunteering to be on one of the PTO committees has optimized opportunities for parents and staff to be actively engaged in these events. See below for a list of the committees and examples of the activities they coordinate. Participating in the PTO is a wonderful chance to get to know Wahoo Elementary staff and families! The PTO is also very excited to be embarking on a fundraising campaign to make improvements to the K-2 playground. Stay tuned as we will be coordinating fundraising events throughout the year! If you have an interest in volunteering or would like any information about the PTO, you can either email wahooelempto@gmail.com or contact Renee Stewart at 402-670-4116.
Wahoo Elementary PTO Concession Stand
We need help in the concession stand! The concession stand in Elementary School is one of the PTO's big fundraisers. Please consider volunteering one time or find a friend to team up and support our students. The shifts are flexible if you are not able to stay the entire time. Bethany Rehmann and Kendra Simons will be available to help you.
If you have questions, please contact Bethany Rehmann at bethanyrehmann@gmail.com or 402-981-5376.
Makovicka Sylliaasen Physical Therapy Excellence in Education Award
Makovicka Sylliaasen Physical Therapy is beginning an Excellence in Education Award for teachers at Wahoo Public Schools and Saunders County Catholic Schools. The nomination form is open to staff or the public to fill out, and there are copies in the office. Please consider nominating a coworker and/or a teacher of one of your children.
The award is given to ONE teacher from either of the school systems per semester. The award includes:
Presentation of Certificate
$550 to Teacher
$200 to teacher's school, to be spent at his/her discretion
Posts and ads in local newspaper/social media accounts
Before and After School Transportation
Before school we will utilize the circle drive for drop off traffic. In the morning the north lane will be used as a bus loading zone. Please do not use the north lane to drop off students in the morning. The expectation is for all students to enter the building through the main doors on the west side of the building.
After school, all students will exit through the main doors at the front of the building. Students whose last name starts with A-L will be picked up in the circle drive. Students whose last name starts with M-Z will be picked up in the north lane. The bus loading zone will be going north on the side street going toward 23rd street. As a result of this, the north lane pick-up traffic will have to circle back through the north parking lot to exit the school grounds.

Expectations During Extracurricular Activities
When Wahoo Elementary students attend an extracurricular activity it is expected that students watch the event. Parents/Guardians should actively supervise their children before, during, and after the event. All attendees are expected to be respectful and display good sportsmanship. If students are making a poor choice, they will be directed to sit next to their parent for the rest of the event.
Guidelines for Home Football Games:
Students are to stay seated in the bleachers throughout the game.
The grassy berm in front of the concessions area is reserved for only very young children (preschoolers, toddlers) to run and play.
Students are not permitted to run or play catch within the fenced area; these activities may take place outside the stadium fence only.
Weather Guidelines for Recess
During the 2024-2025 season, the following guidelines will be used by staff when making determinations about whether to have outdoor or indoor recess.
