|  | | Good Bye Trego, Hello CUW The MNS and NWD partnership for Trego has ended. While we still love each other and rejoice in the memories and growth that took place over the years, it is time to move on. MNS has a great public school conference around the same time, and NWD has a new partnership with CUW that can bring more of us together for an inexpensive day of fellowship and collaborative growth around best practice topics. Watch for more.

| | | |  | | Busing - WCRIS New legal challenges are arising over busing in the state of WI. When something gets given to parochial schools, like vouchers, there are those who want to get something back. WCRIS is active in working for resolution that supports private schools. Stay tuned for more information.

Hearts for Jesus this school year will again be held during the month of February.
