WHERE'S SPUDDY? Spuddy took a visit to one of our schools and found this beautiful mural. Do you know what school Spuddy is at, and can you find where he's hiding in the mural? 🔎🎨#FoundationsForTheFuture

Saturday, November 29, 2025, is the 50th anniversary of the original Education for All Handicapped Children Act—which eventually evolved into the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA)—being signed into law. This legislation was enacted to ensure that every child with a disability has a right to free appropriate education in the least restrictive environment. Before President Ford signed the EHA into law in 1975, millions of students were denied access to public education for growth and success. MAPS values and celebrates the tireless efforts of our Special Services staff for their support of all students with disabilities! ⚖️ #FoundationsForTheFuture

Huge shoutout to our very own Spudnik Robotics Team! When they heard that Ellen Hopkins Elementary student Amarah was looking for a way to raise her hand in class, they go right to work. With 4 students working on this project, using skills they have learned through this club, they were able to create an LED sign she can use to participate in class! 🧡#FoundationsForTheFuture #SpudsHelpingSpuds Read more ➡️ https://www.moorheadschools.org/news/?id=99238

In celebration of Native American Heritage Month, elementary schools across the district hosted Drum & Dance events where Native American drummers and dancers from Moorhead High and Horizon Middle School—plus their own elementary classmates—visited and performed a set of traditional songs and dances. Each event was emceed by Matthew Johnson, the Indian Education Liaison for S.G. Reinertsen Elementary. For the final song of each show, the audience was invited to participate, leading to gyms full of Spuds dancing along to the beat of the drum. Many youngsters were even seen dancing out of the gym on the way back to their classrooms! #FoundationsForTheFuture

🔸 The Moorhead School Board meets Monday at 6 p.m.
Education leaders, university staff, and community partners visited Dorothy Dodds Elementary to observe the Literacy Lab, a program that connects college teaching students with real classroom experience. MSUM students work one-on-one with young readers using simple, data-based strategies, and the early results are getting lots of attention. As Dr. Lucy Payne said, good things happen when schools and partners work together, and the Literacy Lab is already showing how it can help students and future teachers grow. 🙌📚 #FoundationsForTheFuture
