IMS Weekly Update

This week has just flown by for our students and staff! Next week we begin our MCA testing for our In Person students in grades 6, 7, and 8. Many of our CI-Online students are joining us on Friday (4/30) for their first round of MCA tests.

Our students and staff have worked diligently to not only be the best, but to do their best. Our job now is to ensure our students have the best learning environment and learning opportunities possible. Please make sure that your child gets enough rest during the testing period, eats a nutritional breakfast, and brings a fully charged chromebook to school. We appreciate the support you give your student each and every day, thank you for partnering in your child’s success.

Have a great weekend!

PBIS Award

This week we were notified by the Minnesota PBIS Northern Regional Implementation Project that our $1,000 mini-grant application was approved! Our students, staff members, and specifically our members of our school PBIS committee have been working hard to support Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports. This grant will allow Isanti Middle School to continue to recognize and reward our students who exemplify our five character traits each day! We are so excited for the future of this program, and we fully expect to catch our students making positive decisions!

Being Good Neighbors (Repeat)

St. Elizabeth Ann Seton’s parking lot is intended to be for church parking only. They’ve been gracious enough to tolerate parents parking in their secondary (southwest) lot for drop off and pick up. However, they have seen an increase in the number of vehicles cutting across their parking lot, either to get to Oakwood Street NW or to the southwest lot.

The “cutting through” St. E’s parking lot needs to stop. If it doesn’t, access to the St. E’s lot will be lost. I ask for your help in improving this situation.

In Person Learning -- Distance Learning Days

We have had a number of parent calls notifying us their student was choosing to stay home for the day and instead do distance learning. Please remember, we are currently in the In Person Learning model, with In Person learning Monday thru Thursday with Friday being a Distance Learning day. Unless a student has a medical reason, is in quarantine, or has a unique family reason preventing them from attending in person, they need to be in school. Please know that choosing to distance learn from Monday thru Thursday will result in an Unexcused Absence.
