Dear Minne Lusa Families,
As we take this unprecedented focus on the health and safety of our community, we continue to look for the best opportunities to engage our students academically.
Your student may have workbooks, journals or other items left at school that would help them continue to learn. Beginning Friday, we will have time available at school for your family to gather those items to take home.
Family pick-up will occur Monday, March 30th between the hours of 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. 
Here is how that process will work:

           All families will come to the 28th Street breakfast doors.
           A staff member will be present outside to greet you and bring out your child’s materials.
           Be prepared to share your child’s name, grade, and classroom teacher.
           You may drive up and remain in your car – a staff member will direct you where to move your car to wait. Please be patient at this time as we will work as quickly as possible to gather your child’s belongings.
           You may walk up to the entrance as well and maintain a safe distance from the door and wait for the staff member to retrieve your child’s belongings.
           To facilitate pick-up as efficiently as possible, we ask that parents or guardians do not visit school with their student.
This is completely optional for your family and will be done in a way that prioritizes the health and safety of our families and staff. If you or someone in your home is not feeling well, please do not visit school.
It is important to note that this does not reflect any change to our communication regarding the district closure. We are closed with no tentative return date, regularly assessing the health conditions and guidance in our community.
Again, this pick-up is optional for your family. Learning packets for elementary students will be added in the weeks to come to the district academic resources page. Digital resources will be added regularly on the page as well. Teachers are available by email with any questions your family and student may have.

 



Title I Information 

Click here to contact Mrs. Denton if you are interested in serving on our school's School Improvement or MTSS Committees.

This Title I School-Parent Compact has been jointly developed with parents and outlines how parents, the entire school staff, and students will share the responsibility for improved student academic achievement and the means by which the school and parents will build and develop a partnership to help children achieve the State’s high academic achievement standards.  At the annual parent-teacher conferences, the compact shall be discussed as it relates to the individual child’s achievement.

As a school, we will:
1.  Provide high-quality curriculum and instruction in a supportive and effective learning environment to enable children to meet the challenging state academic achievement standards.
2.    Regularly communicate with parents on their child’s progress. 
3.    Demonstrate professional behavior and positive attitude.
4.    Teach in a way that embraces differences in learning styles.
5.    Create a supportive and effective environment where students are respected and feel confident to take risks as a learner.
6.    Provide opportunities for families to be involved in school decisions, volunteer in school functions, and receive strategies to help students be successful.

As a family, we will:
1.    Communicate and work with teachers and school staff on an ongoing basis to be involved and support my child’s learning.
2.    Support our child’s learning—attend conferences and school functions, volunteer in their classroom, participate, as appropriate, in decisions related to their education, and guide positive use of extracurricular time. 
3.    Make sure my child is at school every day and on time, unless he/she is ill.
4.    Support our child by monitoring his/her progress, checking regularly for school communication, and ensuring that all homework is completed.
5.    Work with the school to ensure that our child’s academic, social, and physical needs are being met.
6.    Maintain open communication with the school by asking questions about any areas of concern and informing the school about any pertinent student information that will help promote a productive learning environment.

As a student, I will
1.    Be at school every day and on time unless I am sick.
2.    Be safe by serving as a positive role model to peers and others by following all school expectations in and out of school.
3.    Be accountable for my own behavior.
4.    Be responsible by respecting and cooperating with other students and coming to school each day prepared with completed schoolwork and an attitude to learn.
5.    Read at home.
6.    Share my knowledge and news about my school experiences with my family.



Parent Right To Know Clause At the beginning of the school year, any District that accepts Title 1 , Part A funding must notify parents that they can request information regarding their child’s teacher and his/her qualifications, including certification and endorsements. Parents can also request information about paraprofessionals working with their children. Nebraska requires that Title I schools must also provide each parent a timely notice that their child has been assigned, or has been taught for four or more consecutive weeks by a teacher who is not No Child Left Behind qualified.
