Soon - very soon - New Lisbon HS is sponsoring in conjunction with Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs at UW-Madison / Waisman Center Transition Talks Tuesdays. This will be a webinar series of eight sessions that will focus on all aspects of Transition.
This is going to be very worthwhile - besides the fact I will be on these webinars - that will focus on these topics:
Feb. 1 - What's After High School?
Feb. 15 - Disability Work Benefits: Navigating Work and Support
Mar. 1 - Ready to Work: Finding and Keeping Integrated Employment (DVR)
Mar. 8 - Post-Secondary Transition Plan (PTP)
Apr. 5 - Getting Help as an Adult: Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC)
Apr. 19 - Health Care Changes Too! Bridging the Gap
May 3 - Higher Education Options: What Do I Need to Know?
May 10 - Support Decision-Making and Guardianship
All times will run 6:00 - 7:00 pm which will include about 45 minutes of discussion and 10 minutes of questions.
You will need to individually register for each session, and you do not have to attend all 8 sessions. Click on the clink below, and scroll through the sessions. There is a registration link for each session.
I will be offering extra credit points to any of my HS students who attend a session AND complete a short questionnaire.
Parents of students who are in elementary and junior high school are also encouraged to attend. Planning for life after high school can never start too early.
If you have questions, please contact Julie Mecikalski (Ms. M.), HS Instructional Support and Transition Specialist, at 608-562-3700, ext. 1371

We are so-o-o excited that New Lisbon High School is starting a 🐟 FISHING CLUB 🐟 which will be open to all high school students. No experience or fishing gear is required (although it is OK if you do have it and want to bring it). The club will work with KAMO who has graciously offered mentorship, training, equipment use, and other support to this organization. There will be no specific rules - other than following the fishing rules and regulations and showing respect to authority, peers, and to yourself. Attendance to meetings and all fishing events will not be required; however, those who chose to participate in the competitions will have to follow all procedures and attend meetings.
Fishing is an awesome life-long sport, and it offers fun, socialization, building friendships, increasing self-esteem stress-relief, etc. There are no minimum grade requirements to participate in the group, but we do hope that you see the value in a good education when it comes to other skills involved with the sport. We just want to offer something that students can have fun.
There will be an informational meeting during ELT on Thursday, January 20, in the HS Commons. Please bring a pen or pencil to complete a short survey.
Students aged 16 and older will need a fishing license. You can apply for one at https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/.../outreach/FishingLicenses (the link may not work so you can Google wi fishing licenses)
Our first event will be the Kids Fishery on Feb. 5 outside of Mauston. If you are interested in participating, please let Ms. Mecikalski (Ms. M.) know AND register by calling Northside Mobil - Mauston - at 608-847-6189. No fee for participating and no license is required since this event is at a fish farm. There will be mentors from KAMO on hand to assist and the first 100 kids (ages 16 and under) registered will receive a fishing pole and tackle box - great for those who do not own those items!!
Looking forward to connecting with many awesome students, staff, and new friends!! Watch out for some amazing future photos on this Facebook page because we have some amazing students here!!
On a separate note . . . we are also hoping to get the junior high students involved in the fishing club in the future - watch out for more info about that!!
Keep a tight line,
Ms. M.🐟
