Isanti Middle School

We are just over a week away from the most important, and most anticipated, learning model switch we have made thus far this year. Starting Monday, March 22 we will have all of our In Person students attending every day, Monday thru Thursday. We have used this first week of the trimester to make final preparations and are confident we will make this transition as smooth as possible for our students.

Please know that we will continue to make tweaks and adjustments to our procedures when we identify opportunities to improve our practice. I do want to ask for your patience, especially in the morning with Drop-Off and in the afternoon with Pick-Up. Without changing anything else, we'll have about twice as many cars coming through our lot two times a day. Thank you in advance for your patience. With our weather warming up, I'd encourage you to have students walk, when possible. Also, instead of parents waiting for the kids, it is OKAY for kids to wait for parents. We don't release our walkers/riders until about 3:15 each day. Getting here early won't really speed up the process. However, getting here at 3:25 would often be a more efficient use of your time. Something to think about...

As the sun sets each day, the light at the end of the tunnel grows brighter and brighter. When we open our doors on March 22, we will be welcoming all IMS students back in person for the first time in over a year. This is a bright spot. We should all take a minute and reflect on that what we have overcome and what we have in front of us. Our students, parents, community and staff will take another step forward in bringing normalcy back into our daily routines. I ask again for patience and grace as we welcome all students back in person. Things will look and feel very different than they have over the last year.

Thank you, please be safe, and we will see you on the 22nd.
