At a special meeting on Feb. 16, the Edina School Board approved ballot language and the date for a 2021 technology levy and bond issue. On May 11, voters will be asked to consider a 10-year, $7M technology levy to replace the current expiring levy, along with a $7M bond issue for expansion of bus garage facilities and traffic control improvements at two schools.

Buildings throughout the district will receive an upgrade of their automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to new, tech-savvy models that will increase dependability.

2021 Superintendent Search |
|
Provide input through the Superintendent Search Survey
The Edina School Board has contracted with School Exec Connect, a superintendent search firm, to assist with the search for the next superintendent of Edina Public Schools. The Board wants you to be informed of the process that will be followed and the opportunities stakeholders will have to offer input to assist in making the best selection possible.
All district stakeholders are invited to provide input to assist in the superintendent search through the Superintendent Search Survey. The purpose of the input is to determine the challenges, strengths, and goals of our district, and what characteristics or skills you believe are important in a superintendent. Your participation in this process is important! The survey closes Thursday, March 4.

Evening time slot added for school meal pickup
We have added a late afternoon pickup time to better accommodate working parents. Meal pickup times are Wednesdays, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., and now also from 4-6 p.m., at EHS Door 15 (east side of EHS).
Also, Food and Nutrition Services have added up to five hot entrees (frozen for pick-up) and two cold sandwiches a week to the lunch menu. Because the USDA has extended the free student meal program through June 30, 2021, all students under age 18 are eligible to receive a free breakfast and free lunch for school, if they choose, through EPS Food and Nutrition Services. Visit the Food and Nutrition webpage.
