We're looking for caring, dependable individuals to serve as substitute teachers during the 2026–2027 school year.
Whether you're available **five days a week or just once a month**, we'd love to have you as part of our team. Substitute teaching is a great way to support our students, stay connected to the community, and make a difference in the lives of children.
**No substitute license? No problem!** Training is available through CESA, with the next session scheduled for **August 11, 2026**.
If you've ever considered working in education, this is a great opportunity to get started. Flexible scheduling makes it easy to fit into your lifestyle.
For more information or to learn how to become a substitute teacher at North Crawford, contact the District Office or visit our website.
**Help us spread the word by sharing this post!**
Attached are the 2026–2027 Middle School and High School school supply lists.
If you've already purchased school supplies, no worries! We simply wanted to make sure everyone had access to the lists before the start of the school year.
If you still need to shop, we hope these lists are helpful as you prepare for the upcoming year.
We look forward to welcoming students back soon and are excited for a great school year!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Sincerely,
Rob Sailer
6–12 Principal
North Crawford School District
Our Backpack Sponsor Program is off to a wonderful start!
Thanks to the generosity of our community, 5 of our 20 students have already been matched with a backpack sponsor. That means 15 students are still waiting for someone to help them start the school year with the supplies they need.
If you'd like to sponsor a student, simply email Mrs. Killeen at akilleen@ncrawford.k12.wi.us. You'll be assigned a student's grade level and gender, shop for the items on their school supply list, and bring the supplies to our Stuff the Bus event on Saturday, August 22.
Not looking to sponsor a specific student? We'd also be incredibly grateful for donations of general school supplies. These extra supplies allow us to help students whose families need assistance after our initial list is filled, students who arrive with only part of their required supplies, and new students who enroll during the school year without the materials they need. Having these supplies on hand means we can quietly support students whenever the need arises. Bring these items directly to the Stuff the Bus Event put on by the Soldiers Grove Lion's Club!
Every child deserves to walk into school feeling prepared, confident, and ready to learn. Thank you for helping make that possible for North Crawford students. Huge shout out to the Loin's Club of Soldiers Grove for their help with this effort! #ittakesavillage💙📚
My name is Scott Uppena and I am excited to have been chosen to serve as the new North Crawford Superintendent. I am honored to become part of a district with such a strong tradition of educational excellence, community pride, and dedication to student success. My hope is to continue to move the school district forward following your school motto “Large School Opportunities, Small School Values"
As I begin this journey with you, I look forward to getting to know our students, families, staff, and community members. Building meaningful relationships and listening to your perspectives will be among my highest priorities. Together, we will celebrate the many strengths of our district while working collaboratively to meet the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
I believe every student deserves a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where they can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. By working together, we can continue to provide exceptional educational experiences that prepare our students for success in college, careers, and life in general.
I am deeply committed to open communication, transparency, and collaboration. I encourage you to share your ideas, ask questions, and become active partners in the important work of educating our children. The strength of North Crawford lies in its people, and I am excited to learn from and work alongside each of you.
Thank you for the warm welcome I have already received. I am honored to serve this remarkable district and look forward to an exciting school year filled with growth, achievement, and opportunity.
Together, we will continue to make North Crawford School District a place where every student can learn, grow, and succeed.
Sincerely,
Scott Uppena
Today our elementary staff spent the day learning outside the classroom as we became certified in Project WET, Project WILD, and Project Learning Tree!
These nationally recognized environmental education programs equip teachers with hands-on, inquiry-based lessons that help students explore water, wildlife, forests, and the natural world around them. More importantly, they give us engaging ways to build curiosity, critical thinking, and a love for learning.
One of the best parts of the day was being reminded that some of the richest learning doesn’t happen at a desk—it happens outside, asking questions, making observations, and getting our hands dirty.
We’re excited to bring these new experiences back to North Crawford Elementary this year. Here’s to creating more opportunities for our students to wonder, explore, and connect with the incredible natural resources we have right here in the Driftless Area! 🌿💧🦉🌲
The Girls Varsity Volleyball team traveled to the Wisconsin Dells Classic this week for team bonding and lots of great volleyball!
Regular season play starts August 17th, we look forward to seeing you in the stands!
