We are so excited to welcome families to our annual back to school Connections Conferences! These meetings are a wonderful way to meet your child’s teacher, share important information, complete necessary paperwork, and get the school year off to a great start.

Our staff will be reaching out by phone to help you schedule your conference time. You are also welcome to call the school office to set up your time—Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at 320-370-6181. For Spanish-speaking assistance, please call 320-370-6201. For Somali-speaking assistance, please call 320-370-6191.

*Please note that due to training, staff will not be in the office Tuesday, August 18th from 8am- 12pm. Please leave a voicemail and someone will return your call.*

We look forward to seeing you again and getting the school year started!

It’s hard to believe the first week of August is done! The building is starting to take shape in preparation for all of our students to return 🤩. Hallways are becoming empty, classrooms are starting to be put back together, and our new playground is nearing completion!

Mark your calendars to come see us on August 26th or September 1st for our Connections conferences- we will start scheduling them after August 17th ☺️

School supplies for our Discovery kiddos (and all the pk-5 students in 742!) are packed, loaded, and ready to head over to our classrooms! Thanks so much to Impacks, and the generosity of community donors, business partners and foundations, who have joined together in making the district wide Ready, Set, School initiative possible! 💙
