Twin Cities Pride Recap

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Twin Cities Pride Festival this year! It was an incredible experience that filled our hearts with joy and gratitude. We had the opportunity to connect with so many wonderful individuals who share our commitment to celebrating diversity and promoting acceptance for all.

From alumni and current students, families and community members, to our awesome staff and other vendors, we were so excited to talk with each person throughout the course of our weekend and hear their messages of support for our students. We want to send a sincere thank you to our staff and alumni who volunteered their time to staff our tent, as well. We couldn’t have done it without you! 

The banner that was created by visitors to our Pride booth was the highlight of our weekend. We actually ran out of fabric strips four separate times, sending our event team scrambling to the nearest craft stores! We didn’t expect such an enthusiastic and meaningful response from everyone who visited our booth. The end result left us with a banner so long and heavy, we thought it was going to take the tent down with it! We can’t wait to display these messages of support for our students when they return to school in the fall. 

We will see you next year!

Delivering on our promises: It's time to renew

We have two questions on the ballot in November. Question #1 renews the existing technology levy and Question #2 replaces our current operating levy. Learn more about how they support student learning and where you can vote.

We teach students self-talk to help them succeed as they learn new things. We explain that the brain is a muscle to develop and that they are capable of learning. You can model this at home, too!

Busses

If your child rides the school bus, we invite you to sign up for Ride 360. This app provides real-time mapping for your child’s school bus location and easy access to information like their bus number, bus stop location and bus stop time.

Students in class making peace signs

We believe that all students should experience academic rigor and a pace that is challenging but doable. This is what makes our Talent Development program different from a traditional Gifted and Talented model.

summer school students

Our elementary summer program was a success! Students enjoyed learning, playing games and participating in exciting, hands-on activities. As students explored and learned, they also built lasting connections with their teachers and peers, making the summer both educational and fun-filled.
