Red Wing Public Schools ISD 256
Feb. 15, 2026
Red Wing Public Schools is surveying the community about school readiness. Readiness is about whether kindergartners have the basic skills and supports that help them feel confident and ready to learn in a classroom.
Everyone's input matters as we work together to support our youngest learners.

EARLY MOMENTUM TOWARD FLIGHT PATH 2030
On Feb. 13, Red Wing Public Schools launched the Dataspire Trailblazers 2025-2026 training with grades 6–12 staff, building foundational capacity in data literacy and data-informed instruction. This introductory work to deepen students' data visualization and data-based conclusion skills directly supports the district’s Portrait of a Graduate, particularly the AI-Ready and Technologically Literate Innovator competency, which emphasizes computational thinking, data literacy, and the responsible use of emerging technologies.
This effort aligns with RWPS’s selection as one of 11 districts nationally to participate in the DS4E K-12 Data Partners Program (winter 2026), providing access to national expertise, research-informed practices, and a peer network focused on strengthening data science education. Partnerships with Dataspire and Data Science 4 Everyone (DS4E) represent early, intentional steps within Flight Path 2030, RWPS’s long-term roadmap to becoming a Center of Excellence in AI-Integrated Computing Education, inclusive of foundational data literacy and data science.
