Residents encouraged
Community survey reveals
school district communications to spruce up homes
is 72% effective
By Quynh Trueblood,
Superintendent of Schools
The recent community survey
reveals good news: 72% of our
parents rate the school districts
communication as either very
eective or somewhat eective.
Furthermore, villagers would like
to receive information from the
Kohler Villager and newsletter
mailings while parents prefer having conversations with teachers
and administrators. Both parents
and villagers identied the website as a key information tool.
Encouraged by the data, the
school district wants to give you
information that matters to you

in ways that are easily accessible,

consistently available, and accurate. To accomplish these goals,
an Advisory Committee of 20
members, consisting of broad representation, has been hard at work
with School Perceptions to assist
the district with developing a strategic communication plan.
The process involves identifying priority areas based on the survey results, review of survey comments, feedback gathered through
two focus groups and a review of
best practices in school communications. Work plans for priority
areas identify clear tactics, access
to needed resources and training,

adequate stang, dened timelines and an opportunity for ongoing evaluation and feedback. For
more information, visit the district
website in the Kohler Highlights
section under Strategic Communication Plan.
This spring, the district will
consider aligning resources and
time for improving opportunities
for conversations, the website,
engaging the media, social media
presence, and expanding channels
to include e-newsletters. Most importantly, our door is always open
to hear your thoughts and feedback on the districts eorts to enhance communication with you.

By Brett Edgerle,
Director of Public Works
The Village of Kohler is a
wonderful community and we
all made a choice to live here to
enjoy everything it has to oer.
Parks, tree lined streetscapes,
unique neighborhoods are just
a part of the endearing aspect of
our planned community. There is
also a sense of pride and ownership. As winter wanes and spring
projects go from planning to execution, please consider making
minor repairs and maintenance
to your home. I encourage you to
take a fresh look at your home and
consider tuck pointing masonry,
paint exposed wood, and replace
broken windows. These activities
will maintain or increase value of

your homes.
As a reminder, Village Ordinance 18.07.010 requires that all
buildings have a weather resistant,
uniform, and neighborhood compatible exterior nish. Tar Paper or
similar material is not acceptable.
Examples of compatible exterior
nishes include well-maintained
natural materials such as stucco, brick and stone; painted and
stained wood in good condition;
and non-faded aluminum, vinyl or
cementitious siding.
If you have a question as to
which projects require a Building
Permit, please call the Department
of Public Works at 459-3881.

Whistling Straits lauded by Golf The American Club and

Kohler Waters Spa earn
Digest as one of the Top 100
top ratings from Forbes
Greatest Golf Courses
Magazine ranks course 51st in the world

Photo courtesy of Kohler Co.

Golf Digest has once again included the Straits course at Whistling Straits on its second biennial
list of Worlds Top 100 Greatest
Golf Courses ranking 51st in the
world. The February issue of the
magazine, which is the worlds
most widely read golf publication,
lauded the course for its rugged
fairways and windswept greens.
These accolades come on the
heels of the January issue of the
magazine which included Whistling Straits on its list of the Best
Courses in 206 Countries. This
list, which sought to highlight the

top courses in every country in the

world, ranked Whistling Straits
22nd in the United States, out of
a total of 15,620 courses.
We are extremely honored
Whistling Straits continues to be
recognized as part of Golf Digests elite rankings, said Jim
Richerson, General Manager &
Group Director of Golf for Kohler
Co. Its very gratifying to see the
vision and hard work that went
into creating Whistling Straits rewarded in such a signicant way
by people who have experienced
many of the top courses in the

world.
The magazines ranking is
based on an editorial review by
1,200 course-evaluation panelists
across North America and more
than 600 international panelists,
with added insights by the editors of 30 international Golf Digest editions. The magazine noted
that 46 of the 100 courses on the
list were seaside venues, and that
coastal courses that emulate the
early originals are much in-demand among todays golfers.

For the fth year, the Forbes

Travel Guide has honored The
American Club hotel and the
Kohler Waters Spa with its highest rating of Five Stars in its annual review of resorts and spas
around the world. The guide is
considered to be one of the most
discriminating and inuential arbiters of properties throughout
the global luxury leisure market,
and the ratings carry considerable
weight within the industry. For
more than 50 years, Forbes has
enlisted professional inspectors to
establish the benchmark for excellence in the global hospitality, and
it has once again recognized these
Kohler properties as among the
best in the world.
The American Club is the only
resort in Wisconsin to receive a
Forbes Five-Star rating on this
years list, and the same is true
for the Kohler Waters Spa in the
spa category. Described as Wisconsins cozy hidden gem, The
American Club is also highlighted by Forbes for its outstanding
service and long list of amenities,
standout bathrooms, and some
of the most scenic and sought-after
golf courses in the country. The
Kohler Waters Spa is noted for
a number of hydrotherapy experiences you wont nd anywhere

else, and for oering some sort

of fun and unexpected amenity at
every turn.
Originally known as the Mobil
Travel Guide, Forbes originated the Five-Star system in 1958
and uses a team of professional
incognito inspectors and editors
to travel the world assessing the
properties. These experts base
their ratings on an evaluation of
more than 500 criteria and dene
a Forbes Travel Guide Five Star
property as a destination unto itself; asserting that these exceptional hotels provide a memorable
experience through virtually awless service and the nest of amenities. Spas rated with Five Stars
will wow you with extraordinary
design and facilities, and uncompromising service.
Forbes was one of the rst to
appraise the market in this way,
and it has long been considered
the most distinguished, said Michael Belot, General Manager
of Destination Kohler. To earn
ve stars again for The American
Club and the Kohler Waters Spa
is something we are very proud
of and which we do not take for
granted. I am personally appreciative to our associates for helping
us achieve this distinction.

New learning spaces

light up minds at Kohler
Library
by Erin Coppersmith and
Quynh Trueblood
The Kohler Library is more
active than ever! The Public and
School library in partnership with
the Kohler School Foundation
joined forces to reimage spaces
that would shape minds to socialize, create, and collaborate. Stop
in and youll nd new think spaces in an adult lounge, teen lounge,
preschool area, new classroom,
and technology bar designed to
support making connections and
encourage creativity and learning.
Visiting author Peter Brown
provided inspiration for the theme
and color palette found in his picture book Mr. Tiger Goes Wild.
The design process with Edmonds
Business Interiors fosters a sense
of belonging for all age groups and
patrons. The library has changed
from
transactional/singular/individual spaces to collaborative/
team-oriented thinking/working
spaces that also provide for individual pursuits through new space
usage and furniture function. The
original furniture was donated to
Immanuel Lutheran Elementary
School of Sheboygan for use in
their library.
New features include comfortable seating and workspaces
designed to promote collaboration while providing a welcoming, multi section, environment.
Individual and group computer
workstations, LED lighting, and

standard and cafe height table surfaces oer new options. The adult
lounge provides a private section
where adult patrons can spend
time during the day browsing or
working without being in student
space. New items, newspapers,
magazines and seasonal book displays are also found in this section. The teen lounge features a
sectional sofa, providing some privacy for middle and high school
students who wish to chat about
favorite books, work together on
projects, or read in a comfortable
place. A new Young Adult section
of books is displayed in this space.
The Preschool area allows caregivers a spot to bring their little
ones to library during the school
day. It includes comfortable small
scale furniture, a reading chair,
and board books. The exciting
new library classroom has movable tables, ergonomic chairs and
a modular sectional for smart
board activities.
Looking into the future, we are
working on a mural that ties together the creative and functional
pieces of the spaces, a chromebook cart to support a coding
club and other community technology needs, and a redesign of
the library conference room into
a exible-use environment. On
your next visit, please us know
what you think about the exciting
changes in our library!

worship in Holy Week, March
20-27, and invites the public to

as he moves in obedience to Gods
will toward the cross. As the story progresses the sanctuary grows

of the depth of Gods love for us
as Jesus gives himself up to death
on the cross. The senior choir, under the direction of Mrs. Audrey
Braatz, will add to the sensation
through a proclamation in music. The people of Grace Church
invite all who gather in Christs

name to fully participate at the
