Mahnomen Public School District students benefit every day from the leadership and vision of our school board members. February 22-26 is Minnesota School Board Recognition Week, so please take time to thank these dedicated school leaders. School board members devote hours of their time each week to provide leadership for our school district!
We are happy to celebrate our district bus drivers during School Bus Driver Appreciation Week!
Thousands of hardworking school bus drivers safely transport more than 760,000 students to and from school each day across Minnesota.
School bus drivers have taken on new essential roles during the COVID-19 pandemic to serve their communities, such as delivering meals and distance learning supplies to families, providing Wi-Fi connections, and transporting the children of first responders and healthcare workers to and from daycare. School bus drivers have also followed new, rigorous health and safety protocols to transport students to and from school safely during the pandemic.
From our students, staff and families, THANK YOU to our Mahnomen District School bus drivers!
Reminder to families to continue to be vigilant of COVID safety practices. Even though COVID has been minimal in our community it can still a concern. Please safe behaviors.
