Putting in the work starts with simply being present. Every morning you walk through those doors, hit the field, or commit to a new challenge, you're taking the most important step toward your goals. Consistent effort compounds, and showing up is where momentum starts.
When our Spuds make the choice to show up and stay committed, great things follow. Let's start the week strong! 🧡

💡 Amendment Fact #3: Let’s talk taxes.
This constitutional amendment will NOT raise your taxes. 🛑💵
Because funding comes directly from the returns on state-held lands and investments, it provides dedicated support for education without impacting property taxes, income taxes, or local tax rates.

Let’s chat about the Permanent School Fund Amendment! 💡🏫
We’ve heard a few questions popping up lately, so we want to share the quick facts on how this helps support our Moorhead students and schools across Minnesota.
❌ MYTH: "The legislature can use this fund for other state projects."
✅ FACT: Nope! The fund is officially locked in by the Minnesota Constitution. By law, every single dollar is dedicated exclusively to supporting public school districts.
Even better? It’s set up as a perpetual trust with a steady 4.5% annual cap. That means our funding stays strong and protected for today’s Spuds and future generations to come! 🧡🖤

We had an incredible turnout at Skate City with 173 of our amazing students hitting the rink! From showing off their Spud skills to stepping out of their comfort zones and taking risks on wheels for the very first time, we couldn't be prouder of their energy and encouragement for one another.🧡🖤

💡 Amendment Fact #2
The proposed constitutional amendment allows the state to increase the annual distribution limit from 2.5% up to 4.5% of the fund’s average value.
What does that mean for local classrooms? More resources for vital school programming without asking property owners for a dime!

💡 Amendment Fact #1: Did you know the Permanent School Fund was established back when Minnesota became a state in 1858?
Land was set aside to generate investment revenue and natural resource returns to support public education. This amendment modernizes an existing asset so our students can benefit more from revenues already generated—all with $0 added cost to taxpayers!

Last weekend, Ollie was invited as a special guest of the Minnesota Vikings for their game against the Packers. The weekend was filled with incredible moments—including a visit to team practice, meeting coach Kevin O'Connell, and chatting with the players on the sidelines.
We are so proud of you, Ollie! Thank you to the @vikings organization for giving our student an experience he will never forget. 💜💛
