Converse Elementary and UW-Whitewater Education Major
Our 2nd grade students finally meet their pen pal - they have been exchanging letters for months with UW-Whitewater education majors.

Robinson's ”Cougars and Cubs” after-school club focuses on building leadership and literacy skills.

Shop with a Hero
More than100 School District of Beloit students were paired with first responders or military personnel to shop for the holidays during the annual "Shop with a Hero" event. Families then attended a pancake breakfast at Fruzen. We received a $2,000 community grant from Walmart that helps to underwrite this awesome event. We thank Walmart and the many elves from our District and community who make this happen each year. They work hard to create an enjoyable day for our families filled with wonderful memories.
