Today, students at New Glarus Elementary School got a special visit from the friendly team at The Bank of New Glarus! They spent time teaching students the basics of saving money and why it’s such an important habit to build early on.
Through fun activities and hands-on lessons, our students learned how banks work, the value of setting savings goals, and how small amounts can grow over time. The kids had a blast—and asked some great questions!
We’re so thankful to The Bank of New Glarus for investing in our students’ future and helping bring financial literacy into our classrooms in such a fun, engaging way. We can’t wait to welcome them back again!


New Glarus High School students recently took part in the Wisconsin FCCLA (Family, Career and Community Leaders of America) State Leadership Conference, joining peers from across the state to share projects, build leadership skills, and compete in a variety of events. The event was held in early April in Wisconsin Dells.
Our New Glarus FCCLA members showed impressive leadership, professionalism, and school spirit throughout the event. Several students earned recognition in state-level competitions and those students are:
● Emerson DeRouin and Sonja Engen competed in the Interior Design Level 3 STAR Event and brought home a Silver Medal.
● Kaia Morrison served as an FCCLA Ambassador, helping out behind the scenes with competitive events and the community service project.
The New Glarus School District is proud of all our FCCLA participants and congratulates them on their hard work and accomplishments!
