Appleton Area School District

Last week, the Appleton Area School District Board of Education proudly adopted a resolution proclaiming May 5–9, 2025, as AASD Staff Appreciation Week—a dedicated time to recognize the exceptional commitment our staff have shown to students, schools, and the broader community throughout the 2024–2025 school year

As the days grow longer and the temperatures rise, it’s tempting to ease up on school routines. Spring fever sets in, and students (and sometimes parents) may start to feel less motivated to maintain strong school attendance. However, consistent attendance remains just as important in the final months of the school year as it is at the beginning.

Since 1983, the Mielke Educator of the Year Awards, funded by the Mielke Family Foundation, have celebrated exceptional educators within the AASD community. This year, we’re excited to introduce a new category: Mielke Support Staff of the Year, recognizing the invaluable contributions of administrative assistants, ASU, custodial & maintenance staff, paraprofessionals, and substitutes!

Volunteers Needed

Our volunteers play a crucial role in facilitating the administration of exams to our AP students. There are nearly 50 slots available on multiple dates in May, during the week, between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Thank you for your support of our students!
