(so any restaurants within a 90-minute drive of Shawano is ideal) \n\n\n\nWe know a lot of people love to support their local businesses\, but may not know all the services that are provided. Weโ€™re working on closing that gap by offering a business directory. If youโ€™re interested in becoming part of our business directory\, you can find out more here We are also rolling out a Farm Fresh Directory. \n\n\n\nWe have many affiliate partners where purchases you make with them\, will also help our small business.ย  (The following links are affiliate links and we may earn a commission on qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.) \n\n\n\n\nPlant Therapy \n\n\n\nAmazon\n\n\n\nThink Board โ€“ use Code MarieVandenberg to save 20% off site-wide\n\n\n\nTry The Worldย โ€“\n\n\n\nReally Good Stuff\n\n\n\nmSpy โ€“ what are your kids doing on their phone/tablet that you canโ€™t see?\n\n\n\nMud/Wtr โ€“ Save 20% sitewide with this link (first order only) (My Dr suggested trying this when I suffered consequences from drinking too much coffee. I use both the Mud/Wtr latte and Rest to help at bedtime when I canโ€™t shut my brain off) Iโ€™ve recently added the Hot Cocoa and Nourish.\n\n\n\nZenni Optical โ€“ save $30 when you use my discount link. Iโ€™ve been ordering glasses from Zenni for over 15 years. To order from Zenni\, you will need the PD number (pupillary distance). For adults\, the number shouldnโ€™t change. It will change for kids. Zenni accepts 1 and 2 number PDs. \n\n\n\nTing Mobile โ€“ get a $25 credit on your first bill when you use this link. Plans start as low as $10/month and you can bring your own phone (or in my case\, I just used an old phone.) For more details\, see my post regarding the Cellcom outage and my solutions to always stay connected.\n\n\n\nGabb Wireless โ€“ Code: 9203979786 (discount on your first order) Kidsโ€™ Phones and Watches with additional parental controls.

Weโ€™ll take suggestions for our first check. (We still have $50 to go before weโ€™ll get our first check) \n\n\n\nIf youโ€™d like to donate directly to our fundraisers instead of purchasing from our partners.ย  We can accept cash\,ย Square\, or Venmo. \n\n\n\nOne of the fundraisers is set up as an open-ended so weโ€™ll be able to help several organizations for as long as there is interest in the products. \n\n\n\nThese are a few of my favorite products.ย  This is my โ€œtoolkitโ€ for the Flu Season.ย  It also has some hints about getting started with essential oils. \n\n\n\nIf you are looking for the fundraising socks that we had available\, we do still have them\, but youโ€™ll need to make an appointment. \n\n\n\nThese are a few other ways to support us.

However\, a child may transfer to a nonresident school district for early childhood education or 4K only if the childโ€™s resident school district offers the same type of program and only if the child is eligible for that program in the resident school district. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere was a question a while back regarding open-enrollment. \n\n\n\nAccording to the WI DPI\, these are the only acceptable reasons a resident district can deny an open-enrollment request. \n\n\n\nPlease note that it does not say โ€œtoo many students have applied to out-of-district schoolsโ€. It also doesnโ€™t allow attendance records at the resident school to determine open-enrollment status to an out-of-district school. \n\n\n\nThis is just for Open Enrollment\, this does not include the School Voucher Programs. \n\n\n\nDeadline for Open Enrollment (public school) is April 30th \n\n\n\nDeadline for School Choice (private school) is April 17th. \n\n\n\nI also found out that there is a non-profit organization advocating for Virtual and Open-enrollment students. Itโ€™s called Parents for School Options. https://www.parentsforschooloptions.org/ \n\n\n\nOpen Enrollment: https://sms.dpi.wi.gov/OEParent/faqs.aspx \n\n\n\nInfo for the Wisconsin School Choice program can be found here: https://schoolchoicewi.org/school-choice-faqs/ \n\n\n\nVirtual School Options for Wisconsin Families URL:https://ruralnewfamilies.com/event/wisconsin-open-enrollment-application-deadline-3/2026-02-02/ LOCATION:Wisconsin CATEGORIES:Plan Ahead,RSVP - Pre-Registration Required END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
