September Minne Scoop

A Note from Mrs. Johnson

Happy September everyone!

We have had a great start to the new year ! Thank you to everyone for making parent drop off and pick-up run so smoothly!

On the first day of school, I was out front for parent pick up. It was so sweet and peaceful! Just so wonderful!

We will be starting on FASTBRIDGE assessments next week. These assessments are benchmark assessments our students take 3 times a year and help guide teachers' instruction.

Volunteers! Volunteers! Volunteers!- we are looking for all types of volunteers to help with lunch, schoolwide events, and we are wanting our grownups to feel welcomed into the school. We want to be true partners in your children’s education. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact me or your child’s teacher.

We are also looking for paraprofessionals to be a part of our staff. Please call me if you are interested- My number is 218-804-8221 ext.8402.

Again, we are off to a great start and I want to thank you for welcoming me into the Minnehaha family! I cannot express enough how welcoming this community is!

Always be a reader and be curious!

Mrs. Johnson
