Safe Routes to School

As the school year kicks off, it’s a reminder for all of us to slow down and stay alert. Kids may be anxious, excited, and possibly distracted as they head to and from school – and their safety depends on us, the drivers who share the road with them. Let’s all do our part to keep them safe.

The PTO sponsored Omro Foxes shirts for all of our new 4k friends! We ordered them over the summer and they arrived just in time for school. Each 4k student got one with their Open House packet.

Welcome to the Fox Family, new friends! :)

Eli Schumacher, a history teacher at Omro High School, was one of just 13 educators selected nationwide—and the only representative from Wisconsin —for the 2025 Museum Teacher Fellowship Program through the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C.

This highly competitive fellowship is designed to deepen educators’ understanding of Holocaust history and pedagogy while supporting their efforts to bring high-quality, accessible Holocaust education to students and communities. Fellows participate in an intensive summer institute at the Museum and commit to leading professional development in their local area. Eli traveled to Washington, D.C., in July to complete the summer institute. He was able to learn from expert historians, connected with colleagues from around the country, and prepared to give free professional development to local educators centered around the Museum's education resources.

Upon returning, Eli shared, "this experience helped me connected with amazing educators from around the country and to ensure that local educators and our students have access to the most relevant, reliable, and recent sources on this important topic."

Congratulations, Eli!
