The Fest may be over, but the celebration was still going strong at Emerson Elementary School today.

The 2026 Oktoberfest - La Crosse, WI Royal Family came to Emerson with music, dancing, singing, and plenty of Gemütlichkeit. Led by Festmaster Jon Erickson and Frau Jane Erickson, the visit gave our students a chance to experience a special part of La Crosse’s history and culture right in their own school.

Thank you to the Oktoberfest Royal Family for sharing your time and joy with the Emerson crew. These opportunities help our kids understand the people, stories, and traditions that make La Crosse special. They show the power of service, connection, and giving back.

When we welcome community members into our schools, our kids meet people who serve and celebrate our city, experience local traditions firsthand, and see that their community is more than a place they live. It’s a place they belong.

You saw the photos. Now take another look.

The music. The colors. The smiles. The pride.

For a few minutes, the halls at Northside Elementary/Coulee Montessori became a Hmong New Year parade.

And our students got to experience something pretty special: seeing a tradition celebrated, shared, and enjoyed together.

Sometimes, you just have to see it in motion.

There are some school moments you wish you could bottle up.

Our students and families at Northside Elementary/Coulee Montessori celebrated Hmong New Year and walked through the school in traditional clothing while classmates lined the halls to cheer them on.

You could feel the pride. You could see the joy on the faces of the students walking and watching. And for some of our students, they saw their own culture celebrated right in the middle of their school. For others, they got to experience a tradition they may not have known much about.

Because kids should have chances to bring their whole selves to school. They should see their stories, traditions, families, and classmates celebrated. They should also have chances to discover something new.

Sometimes, that happens in a classroom. Sometimes, it happens when a school hallway becomes a parade. And for a few minutes, everyone gets to see what makes our school community so special.

That’s a pretty great day at Northside.

Top 1% nationally. Two Logan Rangers. One pretty incredible reason to celebrate.

Rohan Pande and Andre Peck have been named 2027 National Merit Scholarship Semifinalists, putting them among the highest-scoring students in the country out of more than 1.2 million students who entered the competition.

And while the number is impressive, what really makes us proud is what these two are dreaming about next.

Rohan plans to pursue Environmental Science and Public Policy. Andre is pursuing piano performance and applying to conservatory programs, with plans to keep sharing his music on stages around the country and around the world.

Different paths. Big dreams. And a great reminder of what can happen when students have the chance to discover what they love, challenge themselves, and run with it.

Opportunities in our La Crosse public schools open doors, build confidence, and give students a chance to see just how far their talents can take them. They also reflect the incredible work of the teachers, staff, families, and mentors who help students get there.

We’re proud of you, Rohan and Andre! Keep going. We can’t wait to see where you take this next.

A sea of pink. Thousands of people downtown. And the La Crosse Central High School Riverhawks marching band adding a little more music and energy to an already incredible morning.

For the second year, our Central musicians were invited to play for Steppin' Out in Pink - Gundersen Medical Foundation, performing outside the La Crosse Center as walkers made their way through the event.

You could see the smiles as people passed. Some waved. Some stopped to listen. Some danced their way by.

For our students, this is one of those opportunities you can’t recreate in a classroom. They get to bring something they’ve worked hard to create into the middle of their community and see what happens when people experience it together.

We’re grateful our students get to be part of moments like this. And we’re already looking forward to the next one.

Some traditions just feel like home.

Today, the La Crosse Logan High School Homecoming Parade rolled through the north side, and for a few blocks, the whole neighborhood came alive.

Drums echoed down the street. Students and staff waved from the parade. Music filled the air. So much candy flew through the air. And along the sidewalks, little future Rangers from Northside Elementary/Coulee Montessori and La Crosse Logan Middle School cheered, waved, and waited for their turn to catch a piece of the fun.

It’s easy to see why this tradition sticks with people.

Some of today’s Rangers were once the kids standing on these same sidewalks, reaching for candy, and dreaming about the day they’d be in the parade themselves. Now they’re the ones waving from the other side.

That’s the beauty of Homecoming. It connects generations, brings neighbors together, and reminds us that school spirit is about more than a Friday night game.

It’s about belonging.

What a great day to be a Ranger.

🎉 What a way to start the school year!

Dahl Automotive and Dahl Subaru La Crosse surprised teachers at Hamilton Elementary School with a $7,500 gift and classroom supply kits.

Through Subaru Loves Learning, Dahl is helping 15 classrooms serve more than 315 students. Each teacher received $500 to choose supplies for their classroom.

That is a pretty great surprise. But it is also part of a much bigger story. Our community shows up for our students in so many ways. Last year alone, individuals, families, businesses and local groups gave nearly $1 million to our schools through grants and donations.

That money helped buy school supplies, fund programs, cover field trip costs, add musical instruments and so much more.

Think about what that means for a student.

It might be the instrument they finally get to play.

The field trip they get to take.

The supplies waiting on their desk.

The program that helps them discover something they love.

This is one of the special things about growing up in La Crosse. Our students have a whole community cheering them on. ❤️

Thank you, Dahl Subaru, and thank you to everyone who gives their time, resources and support to our schools. Great things happen every day here, and our community helps make them happen.

Kindness was the theme of the day for Hintgen Elementary School!

Fourth- and fifth-grade students spent the day at a Youth Frontiers Kindness Retreat filled with games, dancing, trust-building activities, small-group conversations and plenty of laughs.

But the fun had a purpose. Our elementary students along with helpers from our La Crosse Central High School Junior Athletic Leaders crew, practiced empathy, talked about how their words and actions affect others, and explored ways to respond when someone is left out or treated unkindly. They also had time to listen to each other, share their ideas and think about how they can help make Hintgen a place where everyone feels welcome and supported.

Students got to know each other in a different way. They built connections, tried new things together, and discovered that kindness can be a pretty powerful thing.

A big thank-you to Youth Frontiers and our Hintgen and Central staff for creating such a memorable day for our students. We love seeing our kids learn, lead, and look out for one another.

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of our beloved Drama teacher from SOTA 1 La Crosse and Hamilton Elementary School, Mr. Kim Nofsinger. After a short and courageous battle with cancer, he has passed away peacefully.

Kim was a valued member of our school community who touched the lives of many students, families, and colleagues. His kindness, dedication, and care for students will be deeply missed.

We know this news may be difficult for our school community, and we will be supporting our students and staff as we navigate this loss together. We encourage families to give children space to process their feelings and to reach out if they need additional support.

Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with Kim's family, loved ones, and all those who had the privilege of knowing him.
