Welcome

Parents and Guardians,

Every Friday I will be sending out a Social Studies weekly update email and updating my blog https://schmidthive.blogspot.com.  It will basically consist of a short preview of the upcoming week in social studies.  The intention of this email/update is to provide an avenue for you as parents and guardians to have conversations about school with your students.  Please feel free to email (jschmidt@basd.k12.wi.us) or call (763-0190) me at any time with questions or concerns you may have.  Thank you for your support this school year and I am looking forward to getting to know you and your student.
