Our Students Shine Bright

Our students are learning with purpose each day - asking questions, solving problems, and supporting one another. We’re proud of their effort, character, and growth every day at Arboretum Elementary School.

November is National Native American Heritage Month! This is a time dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the rich and diverse histories, cultures, contributions, and contemporary issues of Indigenous peoples across the United States.

For the month of November, you will see the Ho-Chunk flag flying at each school. The Board of Education (BOE) approved recognition per a resolution adopted a few years ago to commemorate Native American Heritage Month. The resolution by the Board of Education can be found on our district website.
