Join us behind the scenes at MAPS! Today we are talking about the importance of early childhood screening.
Did you know that all children entering JumpStart Preschool or Kindergarten must have completed an early childhood screening? It is recommended to be completed as soon as your child turns three. This screening is a one-time growth and development check required by the State of Minnesota and is offered at the Early Learning Center for free. For more information and to book an appointment, click here >> https://www.isd152.org/o/elc/page/early-childhood-screening

It’s the little things that make a world of a difference! 🧡🖤
Recently a special education teacher sent an email thanking one of our staff for going above and beyond in her classroom. We want to highlight Steve Moore, Director of Operations and Emergency Management.
A classroom of students was feeling a little nervous after the water main break at Robert Asp. To help calm their nerves, Steve Moore quickly arrived to show students photos and explain that everything was okay. Even though he didn’t have to, Steve didn’t hesitate to jump in and assure the students that they were safe and secure. We are so proud to have Steve as a member of the Spud team. #SpudPride
The Spuds celebrate a goal during their game against White Bear Lake Area Schools on Dec. 17 where they won 4-1. Moorhead played again the following day against Minnetonka. Next, they travel to Prior Lake Dec. 28-30 for a series of tournament games at the Dakotah Ice Center. Good luck Spuds! #SpudPride Photo credit: Bill Grover
