Before STARBASE:
STARBASE dates are selected preceding the upcoming school year by school principals. If you are unsure of your scheduled dates, please contact us or your school’s principal. You may also contact us directly if you’d like your class added to our waitlist.
Under the Forms section on this page, please complete and return the Class Roster with requested demographic information. Each teacher is asked to send an email answering questions about the class and chaperones/teachers. You will also see Teacher Guidelines and the Student Permission slips with an attached letter to parents. Send this information via email to John Puttre STARBASE Wisconsin Director, Amanda Kallie, the Office Manager, at amanda.kallie@widma.gov. Paperwork is due 15 days three weeks in advance of your school’s schedule date of attendance. This information helps STARBASE Educators prepare our instruction and supplies to meet the needs of your students and staff.
During STARBASE:
Teachers are expected to actively participate with their students, assisting with groups or as needed and directed by STARBASE staff. Please refrain from grading papers, or other school work while you are here. Please also note, cell phones and other electronic devices are not allowed in the classroom. Teachers and guests may briefly step out of the classroom if needed to use personal electronics.
After STARBASE:
