2020 Wisconsin Leadership Seminar for 10th Graders (Posted 11/11/19)
Do you have leadership potential with excelling academically, athletics, arts, and/or community service?
The Wisconsin Leadership Seminars (WILS) is set up to provide recognition and growth opportunities to students who act positively, acknowledging your contributions and encouraging continued civic engagement. WILS provides an outlet for outstanding sophomores to gain confidence, learn more about themselves and develop their leadership skills.
The WILS is a 3-day leadership seminar (June 12-14, 2020) at Carroll University, that is no cost to the students or school. WILS encourages leadership development through emphasis on the four pillars: Responsibility, Service, Inclusiveness, Decision Making.
The high-energy weekend consists of team-building activities, motivational speakers, community service, a talent show, panels of key leaders from various industries, small group discussions, and more.
If interested, please pick up an application and return to Mrs. Fure in Student Services by Friday, November 22. One student will be chosen to attend on behalf of New Berlin West.
Junior Conferences (Posted 10/17/19)
Starting the week of October 28th and continuing into January 2020, the NBW school counselors will be meeting with every junior student and parent/guardian to discuss the student's post secondary plans. The goal is to prepare the student to successfully navigate the world of higher education and the world of work. The counselors are requesting the presence of a parent or guardian at these meetings to help ensure a smooth and successful transition for the student. Please watch for your individual invitation to arrive via USPS and we would like the parents/guardians to RSVP by returning the bottom portion of the letter to the Student Service Department at NBW with the student. If you have any questions regarding the invitation or meeting, please contact Lori Gavin at 262-789-6424 or email lori.gavin@nbexcellence.org
