Congratulations to both the girls and boys cross country teams on winning the conference title yesterday! Additional congratulations to Charlotte Meyer for being named the Conference Runner of the Year and to Charlotte, Griffin Rutz, and Luke Kortuem for finishing as All-Conference! Also, Jase Blaschko and Reid Johnson finished 2nd and 3rd in the Junior High Conference race! And let's not forget to recognize Mr. Olson as once again being named the Conference Coach of the Year!
Sponsored by the South Central Service Cooperative, this conference gives students in grades 3–6 the opportunity to explore a variety of science and nature topics through hands-on, engaging educational sessions.
Students learned about the many ways science impacts our world, from the environment and everyday life to space, Earth, and technology. Each session is designed to encourage curiosity, active participation, and meaningful learning.
We’re so thankful for our Walkathon donations, which help make educational opportunities like this possible for our students! 🧡🖤 Go Clippers!
Minnesota Permanent School Fund: Additional Funding for Cleveland Without Raising Taxes
On November 3, 2026, Minnesota voters will have an opportunity to support public education through a statewide constitutional amendment involving the Minnesota Permanent School Fund.
The Permanent School Fund provides annual financial support to Minnesota public schools through earnings generated from state-managed lands and investments. The proposed amendment would allow the state to improve how these resources are managed, potentially generating additional revenue for schools across Minnesota.
If approved, Cleveland Schools is estimated to receive an additional $20,000.00 annually without raising local property taxes. These funds would provide additional financial support for our students and educational programs at a time when school districts are facing increasing financial challenges.
One important fact for voters to understand is that leaving this question blank on the ballot has the same effect as voting NO. Under Minnesota law, a constitutional amendment must receive a majority of all votes cast in the election to pass. Therefore, voters who do not mark either YES or NO on this question are effectively voting against the amendment.
This is a statewide ballot question. We encourage all residents to become informed about both questions before voting on November 3, 2026.
Additional funding for our schools without increasing taxes is an opportunity worth understanding!
Below are links with more detailed information.
