We are excited for the year to start on Tuesday, September 7th. The students will be filling our hallways with smiles and laughter. As typical as we would like to run the school day, we still need to be mindful of COVID-19. Please review the Safe Schools Plan on the website. In order to keep our students and staff healthy and safe, visitors, including parents, will not be allowed in the school building for drop off and pick up. Staff will meet students at the doors and escort them to their classrooms, if necessary. As a reminder, face coverings are strongly recommended at all times and if your child rides the school bus, face coverings are required per federal requirements. This is going to be a great year! See you on Tuesday! Dr. Villebrun

The first day of school is Tuesday, September 7th! New students should receive communication from NKG Transportation within the next few days!

Nashwauk-Keewatin Open House at both schools! Wednesday, Sept. 1 from 3:00 - 5:00 pm!
