💡 Amendment Fact #10: Modernizing the Permanent School Fund formula gives school districts reliable, ongoing financial assistance every year.
This consistent revenue stream allows local school boards to fund critical academic tools and student programs while maintaining responsible fiscal management with zero tax increases.

💡 Amendment Fact #9: Where does the money in the Permanent School Fund actually come from? 🌲📈
Revenue is generated through natural resource management, land leases, and state investments managed by state agencies. It is a self-sustaining endowment, meaning increased distributions come from fund growth, not taxpayer dollars.
Discover how trust lands support local education at our ISD 152 Permanent School Fund Webpage.

Every school day, our buses carry our most precious cargo... our kids! School bus safety is a team effort that takes drivers, parents, students, and our entire community working together to keep everyone safe.
🚨Flashing Lights & Extended Stop Arm: STOP! Traffic in both directions must stop at least 20 feet away on undivided roads. It is illegal and dangerous to pass a bus with its stop arm extended and when the lights are flashing.
📵Stay Alert: Put away mobile devices and slow down in school zones and near neighborhood bus stops.
Let’s keep our streets safe for everyone. Drop a 💛 in the comments to commit to driving distraction-free this school year!

Our unique mascot dates back over a century to the late 1910s and 1920s! The Red River Valley was renowned nationwide for its potato farming, and one early Moorhead school was even built directly on a former potato field.
To honor our area’s rich agricultural roots—and the hard work, grit, and pride of the community—the name stuck! More than a century later, we’re still proud to be the only school around cheering on the mighty Spud! 🥔🔥🧡🖤

💡 Amendment Fact #8: Putting this measure on the ballot was approved with broad bipartisan support by the Minnesota Legislature.
Lawmakers from across the political spectrum agreed that modernizing the fund distribution is a sensible way to increase school funding using existing state assets—without raising taxes on Minnesotans.

💡 Amendment Fact #7:
Did you know? In Minnesota, leaving a constitutional amendment question blank on your ballot counts as a "NO" vote! 🗳️
Under state constitutional rules, an amendment requires a majority of all voters participating in the election to pass, not just a majority of those who answer the specific question. Make sure to turn your ballot over and cast an informed vote on every question!
