December 18, 2023 at 7:00pm the Wilmot School Music Department will present their annual Holiday Concert for the public. The concert features the Kindergarten to 5th Grade General Music students as well as the 5th Grade, 6th Grade and 7th - 10th Grade Choirs under the direction of Mrs. Marie Ammann who is in her 2nd year of teaching at the Wilmot school. In addition, the 6th Grade Band and 7th - 9th Grade Band under the direction of Mrs. Jill Spindler will also play several selections. Mrs. Spindler is a familiar face in the Wilmot School and is most recently our new Instrumental Music teacher.
Attached is a sample program for the evening of music. Our theme this year is “Ring the Bells for Peace On Earth”.
On December 14, 2023 at 11:30 AM, the PreK students and Mrs. Ammann will present a short Christmas music program in the music room at the school. The public is invited to attend both of these performances.

The bleachers have been installed!!! An amazingly quick and well done job by the crew from SAAFE along with electrician Scott Mayou gets us back in our gym within 3 days! Looking forward to putting them to use this basketball season! Handicap accessible, room on the South side for fans to walk BEHIND players, and the best thing of all? Electric motors!!!
Sorry for the confusion- the bulletin had the boys and girls 5/6 times backwards originally. Tonight's games AT Enemy Swim will be: 4:00 Girls, 4:45 Boys.
The Elks Hoop Shoot is next week!
The bleachers are now gone! A crew came today and hauled them off to their new venture as seating for bull sales! A few extra hands made it easy! Thanks, Alex Reyelts, Eli Hanson, and Superintendent Hulscher!
