To the Families Potentially Affected by the Recent Quarry Vista / South Quadrant Redistricting:
At the January 25, 2016 Verona Area School District Board of Education meeting, the Board made a decision on a means to control the overcrowding at Glacier Edge Elementary. This change affects households located in the quadrant south of McKee Road, east of HWY 151, north of Whalen Road and west of Mutchler Rd and S. Seminole HWY. A map of the affected area is on the back of this letter and is also accessible at www.verona.k12.wi.us/facilities_planning
Effective immediately, elementary students in this area who currently attend Glacier Edge will continue to attend Glacier Edge. Younger siblings, who are not yet attending Kindergarten, will also be allowed to attend Glacier Edge so long as they have an older sibling who has attended Glacier Edge before this change. New families who move into this area will attend Stoner Prairie as their attendance area elementary school. If you plan to enroll your student in the Two Way Immersion program, please contact Dean Gorrell at the number / email address listed below for further information.
You are receiving this letter because you either have your child(ren) registered in a Verona Area School District and / or you filled out the census card we sent in the mail some time ago and live in this affected area. It is possible that you have a neighbor or friend who lives in this area and may not be in our records because they did not fill out a census card and their child is not registered in our database. Therefore, I ask for your help in sharing this letter with any other families you may know of that live in, or are moving into this area who may not be in our records.
For questions regarding Stoner Prairie Elementary, or to set up a tour, families are encouraged to contact Stoner Prairie Principal Mike Pisani at 845-4200 or [email protected].
If you have any questions regarding the information shared in this letter, do not hesitate to contact me, Dean Gorrell, at [email protected] or 608-845-4310.
