Welcome to North Crawford, Christy Chappell!
We are excited to welcome Christy Chappell, our new School Nurse, to the North Crawford family! Christy brings more than 16 years of nursing experience, a passion for working with students, and plenty of experience keeping up with a busy family!
Here is a little bit about Christy in her own words:
Hi everyone! I’m excited to be joining North Crawford as the new Nurse!
I grew up in Dubuque, Iowa, and met my husband during our time in the Navy. We moved to his hometown of Boscobel to raise our family. I attended SWTC for nursing and have been a nurse for 16+ years. I also teach in the Nursing Assistant Program at SWTC in Fennimore, so healthcare and teaching have been a big part of my life for quite a while!
My husband and I have three children. Our oldest daughter is currently serving on active duty, and we have another daughter who is a senior in high school and a son in middle school at Boscobel.
When I’m not working, we stay pretty busy watching our kids’ events and taking care of our livestock. When I get some free time, I love being outdoors, especially hiking and kayaking.
I’m looking forward to getting to know everyone and being part of the school community!
We are very excited to have Christy on board and know she will be a great addition to North Crawford. If you see her around school, make sure to say hello and help us give Christy Chappell a big Trojan welcome!

First pep band at yesterday's volleyball game was a great success. Thanks to Mr. Junker for leading the band and to Mr. Subra, Mr. Ghormley, and Mr. Bankes for joining the fun!
🎉 A New Space for Students to Connect!
Today was the first day our new game area in the commons was open during high school lunch—and the kids flocked to it as soon as the doors opened!
We currently have foosball and air hockey, with room for a few more activities. It was great walking through the lunchroom today and seeing students laughing, competing, and interacting with each other—and NOT staring at screens! Just some good old-fashioned human interaction!
The game area will be available during high school lunch and Honors Advisory at the end of the day. To participate in Honors Advisory, students must meet the weekly eligibility requirements: grades of B- or above, no missing assignments, perfect attendance with no tardies, and no office referrals the previous week.
A big thank you to our maintenance staff for building the fencing and helping create this space. We still have a few finishing touches to make, but it already looks great!
We have room for 1–2 more fun activities! If you have something collecting dust in your basement that you think our students would enjoy and would like to donate, please email Dr. Sailer at rsailer@ncrawford.k12.wi.us.

Update on Arrest of Substitute Teacher
Dear Families and Staff,
By now, you may have seen a recent media report regarding an investigation involving a former substitute teacher in the North Crawford School District. We are writing to provide the information we can share at this time.
This past spring, district administration learned of allegations that a substitute teacher had engaged in inappropriate communications with a student. The substitute teacher was immediately placed on leave, and the district promptly reported the matter to law enforcement and the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction. District administration also communicated directly with the student’s family.
The district cooperated with law enforcement throughout the investigation.
Please know that the safety and wellbeing of our students is our number one priority. We take concerns involving interactions between adults and students seriously and will continue to follow district policies and procedures designed to protect our students.
We also encourage students to speak with a trusted adult, school administrator, or staff member whenever they have a concern about their own safety or the safety of anyone else.
Thank you for your attention to this important update and for your continued support of the North Crawford School District.
Sincerely,
Scott Uppena
Superintendent
North Crawford School District
