Menasha Joint School District provides a pre-kindergarten through grade 12 educational program that offers opportunities to students to maximize individual potential in the City of Menasha, Village of Fox Crossing and City of Appleton (in Winnebago, Calumet, and Outagamie counties). Students will gain knowledge and skills to equip them with the ability to function as lifelong learners and responsible citizens in their communities.
The Vision of Menasha Joint School District:
AN EDUCATIONAL COMMUNITY COMMITTED TO REACHING FOR EXCELLENCE
Our community consists of all district employees, students, parents, businesspeople and the community at large. As an educational community reaching for excellence, we will develop students’ communication, mathematical, and technological skills; self-awareness, emotional adjustment, self-discipline, and other intrapersonal skills; self-discipline to function independently; interpersonal relationship skills; leadership skills; citizenship skills; decision making, problem solving, and other critical thinking skills; career planning skills; and fine arts appreciation skills. As an educational community reaching for excellence, we will provide students with essential knowledge from a comprehensive curriculum; teachers who are well trained and who receive ongoing training; learning opportunities from community resource persons; learning that has practical application; opportunities for advanced academic courses; opportunities for advanced technical training; and learning opportunities from the world of work.
Over the past 10 years, Menasha Joint School District has worked closely with energy partners like Menasha Utilities, WPPI and Focus on Energy as we worked to continuously improve our school district's overall energy conservation. We reduced our electrical load by over 1,000,000 kWh and 850 therms of natural gas while still increasing the district over 80,000 square feet during the last 10 years. Our school district's GreenHouse Gas Emissions have reduced over 2200 metric tons which is the equivalent to over 3000 acres of carbon sequestered in a year.
