Important Health Notice Regarding Bat Exposure at Mahnomen STEAM Camp on June 18th
Mahnomen Public Schools is notifying families of students who attended STEAM programming on June 18 after a bat was found outdoors near student activities.
As a precaution, we consulted with the Minnesota Department of Health. While we are aware of only two students who had direct contact with the bat, MDH recommended notifying all families whose children attended that day, since it is not possible to completely rule out additional contact.
At this time, there are no known illnesses or injuries related to the incident. The district has followed guidance from health officials, notified affected families, and is taking additional steps to evaluate the area out of an abundance of caution.
Families who receive a letter and have questions are encouraged to contact the district office at 218-935-2211, push # 4 to be directed to the district office. Or email Dawn Winters at dwinters@mahnomen.k12.mn.us
The health and safety of our students and staff remains our top priority.

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Trey Beauchamp, a freshman at Mahnomen Public School.
Trey entered 9th grade at Mahnomen High School last fall. During football season, he began experiencing health concerns that led to further testing and a diagnosis of metastatic Ewing sarcoma, an aggressive form of cancer. Despite the difficult challenges he faced, Trey never lost his sense of hope, determination, or his wonderful sense of humor. He was known for his positive attitude, warm smile, and the strength he showed throughout his journey.
Trey deeply appreciated the visits, messages, and support he received from classmates, staff, friends, and community members. His courage and resilience touched the lives of many, and he will be greatly missed.
Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers are with Trey’s family, friends, classmates, and teachers during this difficult time.
