• Historic "Messwood" Football Co-op to Dissolve, Citing Low Participation Numbers (athleticbusiness.com) — Shorewood families should know that the long-running Messwood football co-op, combining Shorewood, Messmer and Dominican high schools, will end after the 2027 season because of low participation and safety concerns. Shorewood School District recently chose not to renew the agreement, though the Shorewood–Messmer wrestling co-op will continue and staff will help affected student-athletes find other teams and activities.
