School District of Cadott Community
The School District of Cadott Community is a school district in southwestern Chippewa County, Wisconsin. The district serves the village of Cadott as well as all or part of the towns of Sigel, Arthur, Goetz, Lafayette, Edson, Delmar, Anson and Colburn. As of 2003-2004, the district had 886 pupils with about 66 teachers. In 2000, the total population living in the district was 4,530.
The district is bordered on the north by Cornell School District, to the east by Stanley-Boyd Area School District, to the south by Augusta School District and Fall Creek School District and to the west by Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District.
It is the mission of the Cadott Community School District to challenge each and every student to reach his or her full potential.
Cadott takes part in the SAGE program, meaning that in grades K through 3 there are no more than 18 students per classroom. In the Junior High students are introduced to exploring curriculum more with classes in fields such as agriculture/natural resources, business and information technology, family and consumer education, and technology education.
The district dates back to 1875, when the Town of Sigel first organized a school district, though a one-room school has been built in 1868. Ground was broken on Cadott High School in 1882; its doors opened on January 16, 1884 and its first class graduated in 1887. New high school buildings were built in 1916 and 1960. Though elementary classes had been taught at the high school since 1886, Cadott Elementary School was first built in 1954 and was replaced by a new building in 1978.
In 1974, a 160-acre (0.65 km2) school forest was donated in the Town of Anson. Donations to the district have allowed it to construct a building, develop trails and build an access through the property.
