Our Early Childhood Family Education classes love to build community by celebrating baby and parent milestones together. 

Parents and children enter our classroom and have time to explore and enjoy the space together before joining as a group for a circle time.  During circle time, we welcome everyone, sing songs, do finger plays or movement oriented activities, and read a book.  Next parents and children engage in a focus activity in which they explore materials together and parents make observations related to development.  Following the focus activity, parents join together in parent focused discussion and learning.  We end the evening by supporting the children around the table as they enjoy a snack and interaction with one another.  

Here are some of the classes we have available:

The Board of Education has approved a change to the district calendar, moving a scheduled day off of school from Feb. 20 to March 5. This change was made to accommodate the Minnesota primary election.

The 2023-24 Reach for the Stars catalog, which includes more than 130 high-quality academic enrichment programs, competitions, events and activities for students, is now available.

This festive event is a time for families to connect with staff and each other – and with members of the school board.

Rdale students begin learning how to use the Say Something Anonymous Reporting System from Sandy Hook Promise.

The district has partnered with Raptor, a visitor management system that enhances school security. This system is used to prevent unwanted visitors from entering our buildings and track those coming and going.

The new school year is in full swing. As students and families are getting settled, here is some helpful information about school meals, including how to view menus and add funds to meal accounts.

Thank you to everyone that volunteered their time and energy to water our garden beds and trees this summer!

We expanded our Outdoor Learning opportunities at NHLC last Spring with wonderful results!

These garden beds support our Garden Study, which is part of our preschool curriculum. A group of dedicated and passionate educators will continue to expand our outdoor learning opportunities for Early Learning students. Studies have shown that outdoor learning can increase feelings of well-being, sustained attention and concentration, as well as supporting emotional, behavioral, and intellectual development.
