Superintendent Berg was at the Capitol today meeting with legislators to discuss how decisions made in St. Paul directly impact the financial and operational stability of GFW Schools.

State funding and policy decisions affect everything from our budget and staffing to the learning happening in our classrooms. Telling our story helps protect and promote responsible, sustainable solutions for our schools and community.

Pictured with Superintendent Berg are our local-elected officials, Representative Bobbie Harder and Senator Glenn Gruenhagen.

Kindergarten Immersion celebrated 100 days of school with lots of fun activities!

Throughout the day, students participated in engaging activities that helped them learn while celebrating this special milestone. Students practiced reading and writing about the number 100, shared ideas about what they would do if they had 100 of something, and explored math activities focused on counting, grouping, and representing 100 in different ways.

Students were excited and applied their language and academic skills as they learned.

A special thanks to two high school friends who visited and dressed up for the occasion!
