The Colby School District has been focusing on building critical AI literacy skills with students as part of the CESA 10 AI Collaborative—and their 7th-grade team just modeled how to do this while also working with their lesson objectives!

For their “Home of the Brave” project, the team beautifully embedded these skills right into their curriculum. Students researched a president and used Gemini to help create an incredible hallway display.

By including their official AI use badges (top corners), they showed what transparent, student-appropriate AI looks like in action today. Great work, Colby!

What an incredible day! We are so proud to share the success of this year’s Adapted Track & Field Day held at Ward Field in Osseo, where 55 students from 8 districts came together for a day focused on inclusion, connection, and celebration—not competition. Students participated in a variety of events while also building friendships and creating unforgettable memories. Every student was celebrated with a custom wood-engraved medal, student-designed t-shirt, certificate, and Subway lunch. The medals and t-shirts were created by talented groups at Osseo-Fairchild High School, and the event was supported by incredible volunteers from the Above & Beyond Group and Osseo-Fairchild High School Track & Field team. Thank you to our amazing donors—Neillsville Lions Club, Alliance Bank, Unity Bank, Pigeon Falls Lions Club, CCF Bank, Lions Club of Mondovi, Fairchild Lions Club, Mayo Clinic Health System, Osseo-Fairchild Booster Club, Osseo-Fairchild Public Education Foundation Grant, Osseo Lions Club, and Global Finishing Solutions—for helping create a day where every student felt valued, included, and proud. This event truly reflected this year’s motto: Unity & Strength!

What a year for the CESA 10 IMC! Thanks to our 15 amazing subscribing districts, we saw a huge jump in both physical item checkouts and school visits this year. We also clocked over 212,000 digital resource uses, and we’re keeping that momentum going into next year with the our new subscription to Kids Discover!

CESA 10 recently organized a successful “Career on Wheels” event for elementary students from the Ladysmith, Flambeau, and Lake Holcombe school districts!

Students arrived prepared with thoughtful questions as they explored a variety of careers connected to the different vehicles and industries represented. This hands-on experience gave students an exciting opportunity to learn directly from professionals and discover possible future career paths.

A huge thank you to our participating businesses for investing in our students and making this event possible:
City of Ladysmith
Jump River Electric Cooperative
Rusk County Sheriff’s Office
Riteway Bussing
Rands Trucking
Zielies Tree Service
Rusk County Ambulance
Ladysmith Post Office

Your partnership and willingness to share your time, expertise, and equipment made a lasting impact on our students!

Congratulations to Emily Gerhardt, a 2026 graduate of Neillsville High School, who was one of 13 students awarded a CTE-10 Scholarship this spring!

The CTE-10 Scholarship program supports students pursuing degrees in Career and Technical Education teaching fields. The goal of the program is to help offset the cost of post-secondary education while building a strong pipeline of skilled educators and future workforce leaders across our region.

We are excited to support students like Emily as they pursue careers that will make a lasting impact on future generations. Congratulations, Emily!
