FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: JULY 11, 2022: KINGSLAND PUBLIC SCHOOLS INVITES SOUTHEAST MINNESOTA COMMUNITIES TO INFORMATIONAL OPEN HOUSE – HOW DO PUBLICSCHOOLS AND SCHOOL BOARDS WORK FOR YOU?
Kingsland Public Schools is proud to host a FREE informational and educational open house for communities in Southeast Minnesota! How does a school district work for you? How does a board of education work for you? These are questions most community members in every district have and we have invited Bruce Klaehn, retired superintendent, to answer them for you?
Bruce had a 41-year career in education; 13 as a teacher, 9 as an elementary school principal, and 19 as a superintendent. He spent 9 years at the helm in Grand Meadow and retired from Dover-Eyota Public Schools after 10 years as superintendent. Bruce has helped numerous districts throughout Minnesota since with providing leadership training and more.
Topics of interest include: Finances including referendums, budgets/funding, taxes/levy & aide, explaining data privacy, authorities in education including federal/state/local school board governance, curricula, roles of your school board, roles of your superintendent, how you can be involved and so much more!
As community members, we understand it can be overwhelming, confusing, or even misunderstood how our public schools operate or what exactly our school board’s authority is. We also understand that ALL communities have a common interest and passion – providing the best education for its students. This is why Kingsland is inviting all community members in Southeast Minnesota to attend, we are in it together!
