A Potential Sizable Gift from a Private College to a Public School System if a Bond Passes!

Congratulations to Dr. Matt Hillmann, his students, staff, and school board, on the pledge they may receive from Carleton College with a successful passage of their bond improvement efforts. See the press release here. Let’s hope this potential gift helps greatly in their election efforts.

Dr. Hillmann and I are wondering if there are any other school districts who have received a similar pledge from a private college/university to a public school system. Please either email Dr. Hillmann at mhillmann@northfieldschools.org, or me at deb.henton@mnasa.org.

From me to you, full of cheer, wishing you a great 2024-2025 school year!

As we start the new school year, let’s bring excitement and humor! This year, let’s combine our dedication to excellence with a focus on enhancing learning for every student while keeping things enjoyable. Even the busiest days can be brightened with a smile.

Here’s to embracing challenges with a positive attitude, creating an inclusive environment, and making this year one of growth, success, and good humor. Let’s make it a fantastic year—one where we all thrive and share some joy!
