Track My Bus App 
Edina Transportation has fully implemented the "Track My Bus" technology into its system. If you would like to be able to track your child(ren)'s bus, please download the district app on your phone. It will ask you for a district code- this is specific to each child, it is NOT the District 287 number. If you do not have your child(ren)'s district code, please call Edina Transportation (
952-848-4979)
and request a number for each child. They will just need your child(ren)'s name and birthdate to get you started.

Order School Supplies!
Don't spend summer days shopping for
school supplies! You can order everything
your student needs online. Click
HERE
to go to the online store at School Tool Box, and search for Our Lady of Grace. You can purchase the entire kit of supplies for your student's grade, or you can de-select any items you already have. All supplies will be delivered to your home within two weeks.
Prices are competitive, and there is no shipping fee for combined orders to one household over $50. In addition, for each kit sold, School Tool Box will donate a meal to Feed My Starving Children. If you would prefer to do your own shopping locally, click
HERE
for a shopping list for each grade.
The process for purchasing school supplies that have historically been available at Orientation is changing next Fall. Calculators for Grades 4-8 will now be included on the general school supply list and included as an option in the School Supply Boxes. If you plan to order the School Supply Box and already have the calculator you need, please be sure the calculator is not included in your box order. Current calculator inventory will be available for purchase at Orientation.
