'I would like to nominate Alyson Zwiefelhofer this week for the Golden Talon Award. Although we do not work together every day, she has made an impact (probably without even realizing it) as I have transitioned into my new role as the school nurse. She had been exceptionally helpful in just jumping in to help teach our CPR class at the beginning of the year. She also has consistently assisted in helping staff throughout the year as the need for CPR certification has popped up! She has never complained and always has a positive spirit! Alyson is a great resource of knowledge and very helpful to anyone that needs it!
Thank you Alyson, for your willingness to help staff navigate something new, even in different roles than your own. Your bright and positive attitude is appreciated greatly!"

❤️ BES, BMS and BHS Student Councils came together to support a "Boxes of Love" project to support patients at Regions Hospital Burn Center. ❤️
This endeavor was part of a National Honor Society project by Alli, a Chi-High senior, in honor and memory of Bloomer resident, Karla Rothbauer. Karla's daughter, Mikki, is a Burn Trauma Psychotherapist in the Regions Burn Center.
Boxes of Love are care boxes filled with intentional items curated in collaboration with Regions. The boxes will provide comfort and support to adult and pediatric burn survivors during their recovery and healing process.
The boxes were assembled at a Winter Retreat on January 4, alongside burn survivors and their families and will be donated to current and future inpatient burn survivors.
A parent of a brave burn survivor shared at the retreat, "Today we are reminded there is more good than anything else." 🥰 It was an honor and a privilege to be a part of this project and to celebrate the strength, courage, bravery and resilience of these patients.
Bloomer Student Council groups are thankful for this opportunity to be a part of something greater! #blackhawkstrong #bloomerhawks #spreadkindness

Bloomer High School FFA students are needed to help run the sledding and ice skating rink warming house! This is a great way to get involved, support the community, and have some winter fun.

"I would like to nominate Cassidy Stanger, our new school nurse, for the Golden Talon Award. From the moment she joined our school, Ms. Stanger has been exceptionally thorough, thoughtful, and always focused on what’s best for students. She takes time to connect with students who need support.
Ms. Stanger also goes above and beyond in helping parents. She answers questions and explains health concerns clearly to help families navigate health-related situations. In addition to all of that, Ms. Stanger is a tremendous support to our office and school staff. We are happy to have her as part of our Bloomer School District team!"

Through creative art projects, guided conversations, and exploring the cancer center, kids learn about cancer and discover healthy ways to express their feelings in a safe, supportive environment. The program is open to families no matter where their loved one is receiving medical care.
Our team of cancer center staff is passionate about making this experience positive and uplifting for children and their families. For 2026, we’re planning two sessions:
January 19 – February 23
September 21 – October 26
See the brochure for more information.
