Formal Dinner 2025

Formal Dinner 2025 If you weren't aware of this fall event at Immanuel, think Spring Banquet just at a different place and time. There will likely be many pictures of the students shared in various ways, but you don't usually get to see what goes into an event of this nature. This year the Formal fell on November 22 but preparations began several weeks earlier as the Activities Committee debated themes, menu, table decorations, photo op spots, and entertainment for the entire student body. The faculty and staff and spouses jumped on board as the wait staff and assisted Chef Dave Rodebaugh and his wife Becky as they prepared an amazing meal to fit the "Rio" theme. Those present were treated to chicken/pineapple kabobs, mixed vegetables, rice, and pineapple upside down cake. The dishwashing crew chief, Jeff Schierenbeck, relayed that almost every plate was returned clean of food; a testament to the expertise of Dave and Becky. The entertainment included Kahoots, a scave...

Miniclasses 2026

Almost thirty years ago, the Faculty of Immanuel and Prof. Ron Roehl in particular, found a way to give the students a break from the long Wisconsin winters by developing what has become known as Miniclasses. Rather than the regular curriculum, the students are treated to a unique variety of amazing classes to help students learn about things that don't normally cross a high school student's mind and some that do.  Each year Senior Class member volunteers organize to select the classes/presenters, work on the schedule, and get students signed up. It is amazing the large number of volunteers who take off from their normal daily schedules to share with our students, some driving two hours or more to present. Most of the faculty, staff, and part-time teachers make a point of assisting by supervising, driving, or presenting classes of their own. Without the support of soooo many people (over 65 this year), Miniclasses would not happen. This year students were treated (oftentimes l...

The Banquet & After Banquet

Image
The annual spring Banquet continues to be a exciting event for Immanuel students who either bring a date or attend with their friends. Back several years ago the parents decided to create a fun, entertaining After Banquet atmosphere for the students. The amount of work the parents go through is totally unbelievable! From finding a theme, creating decorations, getting suitable playlists, finding an emcee(s), rounding up gift prizes for students, and hosting fun games for the students to play that night, the number of hours spent is in the hundreds! This year's theme was "game shows" and thanks to the Game Show Network, most of the students recognized the games. It would not be surprising if next year's theme is already decided on.  Several albums have been shared by David & Nicole Lang and Marcy & Nate Gurgel. I'm hoping you are able to access these excellent photos and get a taste for an After Banquet Party. Album #1            Album...
