Genoa City Schools: Families in Need – Winter Clothing Program
The Genoa City Schools Families in Need Program is here to support families within our school district
who may be struggling to meet the immediate needs of their children. We are again focusing on ensuring
every child has the essential winter clothing they need to stay warm and comfortable.
For Families in Need – Sign Up for Essentials
If your child needs assistance this winter season, you can sign up to receive essential winter-weather
clothing such as pants, shirts, socks, mittens, and winter hats. Our goal is to make sure every child is
prepared for the colder months ahead.

Families & Community Members: Help a Child or Children in Need
You can make a meaningful difference by sponsoring a child or children through our Winter Clothing
Program. Those who can participate will sign up to purchase clothing and essential items to help keep our
students warm, comfortable, and supported throughout the winter.

Unable to Purchase Items? You Can Still Help!
If you are unable to purchase items for a child, monetary donations are welcome throughout the year.
These contributions allow our team to purchase essential clothing and other necessities for children in
need, both through this winter initiative and throughout the school year. Donations can be dropped off to
either school’s front office or mailed to Genoa City Joint 2 School District // P.O. Box 250 // Genoa City, WI
53128. Checks should be made payable to: Genoa City Joint 2 School District, memo: families in need -
Helen Xiong.
Every donation, no matter the amount or item, makes a difference and helps ensure our students have
the essentials they need to stay warm and feel supported. Thank you for helping us bring warmth,
comfort, and joy to our students and families this holiday season!
For more information, please contact Helen Xiong directly.
Thank you for your continued support for our schools and students,

Please help us welcome Dan Farrell to our Brookwood staff! Dan moved from Kenosha to Pell Lake about a year ago. He's really excited about the community, fishing in Pell Lake, and this new opportunity at Brookwood! He's really enjoying how welcoming the staff is and how fun the kids have been to work with. Dan has 2 adult children, Abby (27) & Zach (25). His youngest just moved out last year, so Dan is officially an empty-nester. When he's not working, Dan enjoys music-some country, but mostly classic rock and metal. He likes watching football and baseball and doesn't follow any one team-he has lots of favorites. In fact, he cheers for both the Bears and Packers, so this next game should be loud! He enjoys the Cubs and has been down to Wrigley Field. He's always surprised to run into someone that he knows while visiting Chicago.
Welcome to the Brookwood Family, Dan!
