📢 Help our students learn to read - become a reading tutor! 📢
Make a difference in your community and join our team as Reading Corps Tutor. Wisconsin Heights Elementary is looking for tutors to help students who need extra help with reading.
Reading Tutors meet one-on-one with students in kindergarten through third grade to help them become better readers. With training and on-site coaching, we’ll prepare you to help kids succeed.
This is an AmeriCorps member position with Reading Corps. Together, we’re on a mission to help more kids become strong readers because kids who read have the power to succeed!

Have a safe and Happy 4th of July, #VanguardPride community!
We have been doing these monthly updates since May 2021, which makes this edition our 14th. That, in itself, is hard to believe, but what is even more amazing is all the work that has been accomplished during that timeframe. 😯
So much is getting done inside the elementary wing....the gym floor is getting finished, classrooms are all painted, and cabinetry is being installed.
The HS renovations continue this summer. The flooring in some of the halls and cafeteria are being replaced and we're making it through the four seasons of optimization with the HVAC systems.
That's just the inside!
With the school year ending at the beginning of this month, work has started outside with the elementary entrance and some of the parking lot work starting.
The #VanguardPride excitement continues! 💚💚💚
Students made some wonderful bead crafts 📿 while listening to amazing stories 📚 during #VanguardPride Beads & Books!
🧙Students were sorted into their Hogwarts Houses, 🔍searched for Scabbers/Peter Pettigrew, made potions, decoded secret messages, 🎇searched for Horcruxes, and made quills all in their first week of #VanguardPride Heights @ Hogwarts✨!
