Voters approved the District’s levy request on Election Day by a margin of 61 percent in favor to 39 percent opposed. “On behalf of Mounds View Public Schools, I want to thank
our community for approving the School Board’s levy request,” said Superintendent Chris Lennox. “This support allows us to continue the important work of providing
students with an exceptional, personalized and comprehensive education.”

Extra Clothes at School
If your child has had an accident and came home with clothes that belong to the school, please wash them and return them to school as soon as possible. We use them frequently and are currently out of pants in our commonly used sizes.
Also, if you would like to donate any of these items, feel free to send them to school with your child. We need a variety of sizes for both boys and girls. Pants with an elastic waist work best for our students.
