Rochester's financial situation becomes even more apparent when placed in context. Among 11 other Minnesota school districts that share a similar size and demographic profile, our district ranks at the bottom in terms of per-pupil revenue from voter-approved levies. These figures underscore the urgent need for the 2023 Capital Projects Technology Levy Referendum.

Our Pathfinders Preschool class helped water the Northrop Garden earlier this week. They picked ripe vegetables and made sure no plants went thirsty!
Special thanks to the Minnesota State Horticulture Society for providing us with a grant to help build this garden.
Next up, replacing the Hawthorne playground! Construction is underway as our Hawthorne building is also getting brand-new playground equipment. We are excited to share the final looks of our new spaces at both Northrop and Hawthorne in the coming weeks!
FEMA, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), will conduct a national test of the Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS) at approximately 2:20 p.m. ET/1:20 p.m. Central today, Wednesday, October 4, 2023.
If your mobile phone is on and within range of an active cell tower from a participating wireless provider, you should receive the national test. Wireless providers will transmit the national test for 30 minutes, but your phone should only receive it once.

Exciting things are happening at Northrop! Our preschoolers got to see the construction crew tear down the old playground and prep the site for the new one! They explored the crates to get a sneak peek at the new equipment. Stay tuned to watch the progress!
