Minatare Public School District

Come on down to the KNEB Spring Show at the Weborg 21 Center on Saturday, April 30th and look for the Minatare Elementary Booth. We will be having Open Enrollment for our Pre-Start Program and Kindergarten. Both Programs require a copy of the State issued Birth Certificate (Pre-Start can accept the hospital Birth Certificate), Physical Exam, Vision Exam, and an up to date Immunization record. Pre-Start also needs a Dental Exam. These Items are not required on April 30th, but they are required to start the school year. So come on down and see Mrs. Wolf and get a head start on filling out the paperwork and learn more about Minatre Pre-Start and Kindergarten.

No School for Grades Pre-k through 12 Friday April 15th and Monday April 18th. Have a safe and Happy Easter.
