Local youngsters spent Tuesday morning gaining a useful respect for the water by taking part in the School District of Janesville's Swimming and Safety summer school class at Joseph A. Craig High School!

Students channeled their inner dolphins and worked with instructors to learn how to manage swimming at their own respective levels. While small children got comfortable splashing and being pulled through the water, older students worked on traversing the Craig pool with asssistance ... or on their own using their favorite stroke method.

Learning to swim and be safe in the water is one of the greatest gifts a parent can provide for a child. Lessons build confidence, awareness and skills that last an entire lifetime.

Summer school is all about the fun, but building friendships sure is an awesome side product!

Tuesday at Monroe Elementary School, students had plenty of opportunity to interact through programs specifically for kindergarten and first grade, but also game-playing and art programs for older kids. In one classroom, students were busily making paper "candles" to affix to a "birthday cake" intended to celebrate the country's 250th birthday in July!

One of the great things about summer school is the laid-back atmosphere and the opportunity to work more closely with students in smaller classrooms. The attention certainly has an impact, as the kids are all smiles and truly seem to enjoy the opportunity to learn new things.

Kudos to the Monroe staff for working extra hard to make this happen!

THE NEED FOR SPEED!

This morning, students in the Boys Strength and Conditioning summer school program at Joseph A. Craig High School placed all of their attention on gaining agility and boosting speed during a workout in the Craig High fieldhouse!

The workout kicked off with drills intended to improve running form and get those quick-twitch muscles firing on all cyclinders. After that, it was over to the indoor track for a series of sprints to further push those balanced running skills.

No lifting today, but that, too, is a regular part of this program. It's great to see our students working because we know they see the value of physical fitness. That not only bodes well for their time on the fields, courts and tracks at Craig, but also for their years after high school!

Here's one last look back at the year that was.

We here at the School District of Janesville are more than grateful for each and every moment we got to spend with our students and staff, and we can't wait for more magical experiences when school starts again in the fall.

But, until then, please enjoy these moments in time from the past year.

On Thursday, student attending summer school at Jackson Elementary School, Janesville, WI enjoyed a wide variety of activities designed to not only help them learn, but to also help them learn in a fun and relaxed manner.

In addition to gym class activities out in the cool weather, students took part in art class, learned Spanish, worked on their number tables, completed STEAM projects, created colorful coral reefs and more! As you can tell by the smiles, there was plenty of subliminal learning going on.

There are always plenty of fun educational opportunities available through the School District of Janesville's summer school program. Be sure to check them out again next year when the informational booklet is released in spring!

BUILDING STRENGTH AND STAMINA!

On Wednesday, participants in the Girls' Strength and Conditioning summer school program at Parker High School - Janesville, WI were being put through the paces as they worked toward their goals of personal fitness!

Early on, the girls powered through a series of drills that had them stretching, running and jumping before heading into the weight room for some muscle-building sessions. Nobody likes having their photo taken when they're pushing and exerting, but these students pushed through, forgot about the photographer and put in some good workouts!

Guess who's gonna be ready for fall sports in 2026-27 ...

Looking for the School District of Janesville's New Student Enrollment Office?

You're not alone.

Since staff at the district's Educational Services Center (527 S. Franklin St.) has been temporarily relocated to accomodate needed updates to the 86-year-old building, folks have been a bit confused as to where to go to register/enroll their students for school.

For the 2026-27 school year, new student enrollment and student services will be housed at 101 N. PARKER DRIVE -- the second floor of the BMO Harris Bank building downtown. Those visiting SDJ staff at this location are asked to access this entrance, NOT the bank's first-floor entrance at 100 N. MAIN ST.

Check out this video for a visual guide to get you where you need to go. And remember, it's always best to call 608-743-5000 in advance to schedule and appointment to ensure staff availability.
