Hunger Impact Partners is a non-profit organization working the Minnesota Department of Education to promote free summer meals for kids across the state - your students included! With MDE, the mobile app Free Meals for Kids was created to support summer meal programs utilizing the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP). The app is powered by GPS and shows locations of schools and community sites providing meals across Minnesota. No registration or prior sign-up is necessary for most sites. The sites which require prior registration are clearly marked on the site information. There are also free serving sites across the state at school, parks, recreation centers, community centers, and libraries. All kids up to age 18 can locate the nearest site, show up at the right time, and eat.

Jayden has been an incredible student helper these last two years in the Beshigendaagoziwaad program at Red Lake Elementary Complex! His positive energy, warm smile, and genuine kindness have made a lasting impact on both the students and staff. Jayden greets everyone with enthusiasm and makes each day a little brighter. We will truly miss his presence and wish him all the best as he graduates and embarks on this exciting new chapter!

Peanut butter and jelly activity at the Intermediate staff meeting! Why? Application to our learning community; an environment best for learners. Importance of clear and specific instructions but… is there only one way to make a pb&j sandwich? No. We can have the same learning target (make pb&j) but get there in multiple ways. Some can be more efficient but we learn from doing. If it doesn’t work, we can learn from our efforts.









Here is the May newsletter for the Intermediate Learning Community (Grades 3-5)!
