Hello Nerstrand Families,
It has certainly been a wild ride with all of the snow days over the last three weeks. I have never seen anything quite like it! Many people are wondering about possible snow make up days, and Nerstrand School will plan on following Faribault Schools lead on this. I will let you know as soon as we have that information.
We are accepting applications for the 2019-2020 school year at this time.

Nerstrand Elementary, the little school by the Big Woods, is a public K-5 elementary charter school located in a rural setting near Faribault, Minnesota.
155 students and their teachers join together in multi-age classrooms to discover project-based, hands-on learning that includes environment studies locally at the Big Woods State Park. Students participate in daily music and physical education instruction. Instrumental music lessons and band is offered to all 5th grade students. Students learn and serve through community related opportunities within the school.
We believe all children can and want to learn. Toward that goal, we take the Responsive Classroom approach to creating a safe, challenging, and joyful educational environment. Responsive Classroom seeks to teach students appropriate ways of getting along with each other as members of the community.
