Name that snowplow!

The PLSAS Operations team recently purchased a brand-new tractor/snowplow to help keep up with snow removal and plowing around our buildings, but one thing was missing... a name!

Third-grade classrooms in the district were invited to participate in the PLSAS "Name that Snowplow!" Contest. After 21 classrooms submitted their best snowplow name, a team of judges narrowed it down to four finalists. The staff at the District Services Center then voted on their favorite and the winning name was clear.

Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the newest PLSAS snowplow...Snow-bi Wan Kenobi, named by Mrs. Fahning's third graders at Jeffers Pond Elementary School. In the spring, the class will get to paint the blade of the plow as a reward for their creativity. Stay tuned for the final product...coming soon!

Prior Lake-Savage Area Schools holds second Town Hall Meeting on School Finance 

At PLSAS, having a high level of fiscal transparency is very important. As we plan for next school year, we want to continue to engage our stakeholders to help drive our budget conversations. 

To help our community make sense of our budgeting process, we are conducting our second Town Hall meeting for the purpose of providing background information to our community on education funding, sharing enrollment information and providing budget forecast data. This meeting will also include time for questions from our community and gathering perspectives so that we can build our budget accordingly. This meeting will be recorded and posted later on the district's YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/isd719

PLSAS' first Town Hall Meeting on School Finance was held January 25, 2023. You can view the recording here: https://youtu.be/hG7FwM98pgE
