Rainy weather couldn't dampen the spirits at S.G. Reinertsen Elementary during their very first indoor recess of the school year this week! Classrooms quickly turned into hubs of creativity and connection as students spent the break exploring building sets, playing school, and interacting with friends. Rain or shine, SGR students always know how to bring the sunshine indoors!

🎧 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.

▶️ Catch the full conversation on our YouTube channel and get informed ahead of early voting starting September 18th!

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.

PDF Why is it on the Ballot

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!

📲 Learn more on our ISD 152 Permanent School Fund Webpage.
