The number of COVID-19 cases this past week does show a slight increase to 14.86  Current projections for next week will show this number will increase again slightly to 15.04.  Although the county numbers and our district numbers have gone up, our rates in the building(s) have gone down.

As of the end of today, we have 46 days of school left in the year. We have come a long way this year to provide a more normal education for our students.  With only a little over a quarter of the school year left, there is much to be accomplished.  This is not the time to let down our guard.  Yes, with the weather getting nicer it is a great time to get outside and enjoy all of the activities spring has to offer.  

I spoke last week of the B117 variant that had been discovered in Carver County. Although it has not been discovered in Stearns County it still remains very important to follow all of the safety protocols and use of different levels of mitigation. Please continue to take every measure to slow down the spread.

If you have any questions or concerns do not hesitate to contact me or any of the building principals.
