The end of summer means one thing in Weyauwega-Fremont, it’s time to head back to school! Students, parents, and staff are gearing up for another year of learning, activities, and Warhawk pride. Here’s a detailed look at what families need to know for the first week of the 2025 - 2026 school year. 🗓️ First Day of School The first official day of school  is Tuesday, September 2, 2025 . Soft Start Day  – On this day, all 6th graders  (as well as new 7th and 8th grade students) will have a “soft start” in the Middle School. This smaller-scale day helps students get comfortable with their schedule, meet teachers, find their lockers, and learn building routines before the entire student body arrives. Parents can expect lighter traffic at drop-off and dismissal, and teachers will be focused on welcoming students into their new environment. Elementary Students  will return in full swing beginning Tuesday, September 2. High School students  will return in full swing beginning Wednesday, September 3. For many families, that week will mean getting used to new bus routes, earlier bedtimes, and the return of homework at the kitchen table. Reminder: Monday, September 1 is Labor Day , so schools will be closed. ✏️ Weyauwega-Fremont School Supply Lists Coming prepared makes a big difference in getting the year off to a smooth start. The district has released its official supply lists  for 2025–2026: Elementary & STEM Academy:  Basic classroom essentials such as crayons, markers, folders, #2 pencils, glue sticks, gym shoes, and tissues. Many classes also ask families to label items so younger students can keep track of their supplies. Middle & High School:  Binders, notebooks for each subject, pens and pencils, a scientific calculator (for higher math), and gym shoes. High school courses may require additional materials depending on electives — families should check syllabi the first week. 📝 Full lists can be downloaded from the district’s Back to School page: Elementary & STEM Supply List 2025–2026 HS & MS Supply List 2025–2026 🦅 Warhawk Sports Kick Off the Season It isn’t just the classrooms filling up this week - the fields, courts, and trails are busy too as the Warhawks begin their fall sports campaigns.

April 10, 1975 — August 7, 2025 It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Terry Gene Johnson, 50, of Manawa, Wisconsin, who left us unexpectedly in an accident on Thursday, August 7, 2025. He was born on April 10, 1975, in Appleton, son of Gene and Helen (Voeks) Johnson. Terry was a beloved husband, father, son, brother, and friend, leaving a lasting impact on everyone who knew him. Terry was known for his big smile and witty personality. He loved his wife, Tammy, this past year they celebrated their 25th Wedding Anniversary with a trip to Kauai, Hawaii; he cherished their three daughters, Samantha, Chloe and Grace, more than anything in the world. He was the kind of father who would drive three hours just check the oil in his daughter's car - always there to lend a helping hand or share a laugh. He looked forward to walking his daughters down the aisle and dreamed of a future filled with travel and a more relaxed life in retirement. Terry graduated from Hortonville High School in 1993. He proudly served in the U.S. Army National Guard for eight years. Professionally, Terry worked in the blasting industry over 30 years, most recently as an explosives engineer for Falcon Drilling and Blasting, where he utilized his keen intellect and skills. Outside of work, he found joy in the simple things: cooking up his infamous "mix ups" from leftover ingredients, chipping golf balls with friends, or tossing the frisbee with his loyal dog, Molly, who adored him unconditionally. Terry had a love for basketball and coaching, giving his all to the girls he mentored.Terry was also well known for his sense of humor - always ready with a joke or a quick comment, and loved sharing his favorite sayings like "living the dream," "negative ghost rider," "okay boss" and "10-4." He was a generous spirit who would do anything for anyone, no matter what.Terry is survived by his wife, Tammy; three daughters: Samantha (fiancé Jason Knops) Johnson, Chloe (fiancé Greg Schmidt) Johnson, Grace Johnson; mother, Helen Johnson; two sisters: Jodie (Tom) Wynboom, Rhonda (Sonny) Butler; in-laws, Ray and Judy Much; sisters-in-law: Cindy (fiancé Shane Mohnen) Much, Shawn (Jeremy) Buchholz, Kristy (Kevin) Levezow and many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his father, Gene Johnson; his brother, Kevin Johnson; his maternal and paternal grandparents; and special friend, Donald Buman. A Memorial Service for Terry will be held on Friday, August 15, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at St. Mark Lutheran Church in Symco with Rev. Jeffrey Smiles officiating. A gathering of family and friends will be held on Thursday, August 14, 2025, from 4:00 - 7:00 p.m. at the church and on Friday prior to the service from 9:30 - 10:45 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations may be directed to his wife, Tammy, to be shared with a yet to be determined memorial. Following the service, everyone is invited to continue to celebrate Terry's life at his home for a luncheon. In memory of Terry, the family asks you to share your favorite stories of Terry, raise a glass of your favorite drink in his honor, or enjoy some lightly salted potato chips and dip - his personal favorite! He will be missed deeply but remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
