💡 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!
Explore the history and facts on our ISD 152 Permanent School Fund Webpage.
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. 💜💛
Here’s your weekly reminder: mindset is everything! That project you're working on? You've got this. That goal you set for yourself this semester? You're closer than you think.
When our Spuds believe in their potential, there’s no limit to what we can accomplish together. Let's make this week count!🧡

🎧 Tune into the latest episode of the Spudcast! 🎧
Executive Director of Community Engagement & Public Relations Brenda Richman sits down with Superintendent Brandon Lunak to discuss the Permanent School Fund Constitutional Amendment appearing on your ballot this fall.
In this episode, Superintendent Lunak breaks down:
👉 What the Permanent School Fund is and how it benefits local public education.
👉 Why modernizing this distribution formula is on the ballot this November.
👉 What our community needs to know before heading to the voting booth.
Here is the key takeaway: This amendment will NOT increase your taxes or cost Minnesotans a single extra penny. It simply allows local school districts to receive a higher payout from existing, state-managed endowment assets.

Why are voters deciding on school funding this November? 🗳️
Because the Permanent School Fund rules are written into the Minnesota State Constitution, updating the funding distribution requires approval from voters statewide.
Here is what you need to know:
1️⃣ It modernizes how funds reach local classrooms.
2️⃣ It requires ZERO tax increases—no property, income, or sales tax changes.
Find out how this helps local education by reviewing the details on our ISD 152 Permanent School Fund Webpage or check the state legislative overview on the Minnesota House Public Information Services Summary.

Have you heard about the Permanent School Fund Constitutional Amendment coming to your ballot this fall? 🎓
This measure asks Minnesota voters whether to update how revenues from the state's existing school trust fund are distributed to local school districts. The best part? It will NOT raise your taxes or cost Minnesotans any extra money. It simply allows local schools to receive a larger portion of earnings generated by existing state assets.
Stay tuned every Tuesday and Thursday as we break down what this means for our schools!
