News & Communications

We use Blackboard as our school communication system. It allows us to send phone calls, emails, text messages and alerts to the District app. The system uses contact information that you enter into ParentVUE. We use Blackboard to communicate emergency information quickly as well as important information and alerts. Schools and programs also use this system to send important information and reminders. Therefor, it is important that you keep your contact information up to date so that you receive all of the alerts and notices from your child's school and from the District. 

We use a variety of mobile apps in the District. Here are the top apps that families should consider downloading.

• MealViewer: Use the MealViewer app to check out the daily breakfast and lunch menus. You can also view nutrition information and set alerts for menu items with ingredients your child is allergic to. (App Store) (Google Play)
• ParentVUE: Stay informed and connected to your child’s academic experience by accessing near real-time information on assignments and scores, attendance and demographic information. (App Store) (Google Play)
• Seesaw: Used primarily in our elementary schools, the Seesaw app connects you with your child's teacher and allows you to see what students are working on during the day. (App Store) (Google Play)
• Schoology: Used primarily in our secondary schools, the Schoology app lists student assignments, assessments and due dates. You can also use it for feedback and messaging. (App Store) (Google Play)

Pursuant to the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act, members of the community may submit requests for public data by contacting our office. Upon receiving a data request, we will confirm receipt and provide a tentative timeline for fulfillment.

Prior to fulfilling a request, we may contact you if we need clarification or to arrange other details related to the request. 

In order to complete a request, we will do one of the following:

• If we do not have the data, we will notify you in writing as soon as reasonably possible.
• If we have the data but it is not public data, we will notify you as soon as reasonably possible and specify in writing the reason for the decision to withhold the data.
• If we have the data and it is public data, we will respond to the request appropriately and promptly, within a reasonable amount of time by doing one of the following:
  • Arrange a date, time and place to inspect data if the request is to look at the data.
  • Provide copies of the data as soon as reasonably possible if copies are requested. You can choose to pick up the copies, of have the information mailed or faxed to you. Electronic copies will be provided upon request if the data is currently kept in an electronic format.

The Minnesota Government Data Practices Act does not require the creation or collection of new data in response to a data request, nor is the District required to provide data in a specific form or arrangement if not kept in that form or arrangement.

The Minnesota Government Data Practices Act does not require the district to answer questions that are not requests for data.

Be advised that there may be costs associated with certain data requests. If your request is one that would incur a fee, we will communicate that with you up front, along with an explanation for the fee(s).
