Learning the Wildcat Way
At Chisago Lakes Primary, we take pride in teaching and practicing the Wildcat Way: Be Respectful, Be Responsible, and Be Safe. To help our students learn these important skills, we use our school superheroes Riley Respect, Ruby Responsibility, and Sam Safety. Each of these superheroes helps guide students in making positive choices at school, whether they’re in the classroom, hallways, playground, or lunchroom. Students are learning what it looks like and sounds like to follow the Wildcat Way every day.
You may start seeing green Wildcat Way tickets coming home with your child! These tickets are part of our positive Wildcat Way system and are given when a staff member notices a student doing something amazing that demonstrates the Wildcat Way.
When a student earns a ticket, their name is entered into our monthly drawing for a dance party! The ticket that comes home is a duplicate, so when you see one, help us celebrate your child and the great choices they are making at school! We want our students to know that following the Wildcat Way is something worth celebrating, both at school and at home.
To keep the learning going at home, we’ve included some fun activity and coloring sheets linked below. These are a great way to reinforce the messages, talk about what Respect, Responsibility, and Safety look like at home, and celebrate the Wildcat Way with your child!

Joining Your Child for Lunch
If you are planning to come, please give us a heads-up ahead of time by contacting Amy Odland so we can make sure lunch visitors can be accommodated that day. She can be reached at aodland@isd2144.org or 651-213-2202. If your schedule allows, we also encourage families to consider visiting Monday - Thursday rather than Friday. Fridays tend to be our busiest visitor days, and we have a limited number of tables available for families. Thank you for helping us plan ahead. We love having you as part of our Primary day!
