Dear Folks,

On behalf of the Board of Education, Administration, and Staff, I want to welcome you to the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District.  Consisting of 12 municipalities, CFAUSD serves over 5,000 students ranging from four-year old kindergarten through high school within 235 square miles. The students exhibit amazing qualities and attributes that will certainly promote “Educational Excellence: For a Changing Tomorrow.”  The significant pursuits of our students shine brightly every year in the classroom, on the stage, in the shops, in businesses, on the farms, in the community, and in the vast arena of co- and extracurricular opportunities. The dedicated CFAUSD staff members excel in providing educational services to our students that provide a multitude of opportunities for student success beyond their years in our ever-improving system.

The Mission for the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District, in partnership with the community, is committed to excellence, empowering, and challenging all students to learn while preparing them for an ever-changing global society. The Mission is attainable through a focus on data-based decision making, research-based best and next practices, and enhancing enthusiastic engagement with and among students, teachers, and parents to be active partners in the students’ learning experiences.  We take the Mission quite seriously and utilize it, and the Mega-Result, as our primary guides to our strategic planning, and cordially invite you to join our efforts as we work to be a collaborative and productive team of students, staff, families, and community-at-large where:

• Students come first in the Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District
• Our schools provide a positive environment where mutual respect and individual responsibility are learned and practiced.
• Our schools provide a safe and secure environment.
• Every member of our community has value in the education of our students.
• All students, regardless of their diverse learning abilities, can learn, and achieve to their maximum potential.
• Our schools provide a high-quality and comprehensive education for all students.

I personally welcome and embrace all members of our community to be a productive part of the work and events that take place at and in our schools throughout the District, and look forward to serving every student who walks through our doors to the absolute best of our abilities.  I hope, like me, you find the Chippewa Falls area to be a wondrous place to live, work, play, attend school, and raise a family. 

Welcome to Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District.  We look forward to appropriately and assertively serving the needs and wants of our stakeholders.

Respectfully,
Jeff Holmes
Superintendent
