Welcome to the new 2021-2022 school year. Please read through the following back to school details and we will see you soon!

Parent Checklist

1. Pay Student Fees:

Technology & Background Check Fees

The Technology & Background Check fees totaling $20 per student has been approved for the 2021-2022 school year. (These are fees which are not specifically permitted or prohibited by MN Statute; the fees were presented at a public hearing and adopted by the St. Croix Prep School Board on Tuesday, July 20, 2021.) These fees are posted to each student’s account in SchoolPay.
Pay Fees

21/22 Middle & Upper School Community Consumables

This $30 per student contribution will allow us to purchase supplies when needed, in bulk, at better prices, safely store and manage supplies. Purchased items will include, but not be limited to: pencils, pens, Expo markers, crayons, colored pencils, glue sticks, note cards, Kleenex, paper towels, sanitizer, etc. Thank you for helping offset the cost of community supplies. Go to ‘Consumable Donations’ and then ’21/22 Middle & Upper School Community Consumables’ to donate.
Pay Fees

Workbooks and Consumables Donation

Contribution for student consumable workbooks, planners and art room supplies listed by grade level. Go to ‘Consumable Donations’ and then ’21/22 Workbooks and Consumables’. Contributions ensure that consumable workbooks will continue to be available to all students.
Pay Fees

Student Lunch Accounts

Free school breakfast and lunch will be offered for all students for the entire school year through an extended waiver from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. However, there is a cost to purchase only milk and al la carte items. You can deposit money into your child’s lunch account. Breakfast will be available in the cafeteria daily from 9:00-9:25 am.

2. Health Office Reminders:

Students with Health Concerns

If your student has life threatening (anaphylactic) allergies, asthma, or seizures please remember we need a new Action Plan signed by the healthcare provider at the beginning of every school year.
Health Office

Students with Medications

All medications require forms on file in the Health Office and most medications need to be kept in the Health Office. Students in grades 5-12 may self-carry inhalers (still need an Asthma Action plan). Students in grades 7-12 may self-carry pain relief medication (Tylenol and Ibuprofen) but require a self-carry form on file. For legal reasons, we cannot accept other school district medication forms (a generic form from your clinic is fine).
Medications

Please Note:

All should be brought directly to the Main Office/Health Office. Please do not bring forms or medications to your Division Office. For your convenience, the Health Office will be present at Back to School Night to accept forms and medications. You can also drop them off before during school office hours when the main office is open, starting August 9.

Please contact the Licensed School Nurse, Jessica Skilling, if you have concerns or would like to schedule a specific meeting about your student and their health concerns/medication needs.

Immunizations

Per the Minnesota Immunization Law certain immunizations, a notarized conscientious objection OR a healthcare provider signed medical exemption are required to start on the first day of school. The Health Office is in direct contact with those families who are noncompliant. This requirement tends to affect kindergarten, 7th grade and 12th grade students the most.
Immunizations

Free Washington County Covid-19 Vaccine Clinics

Washington County Public Health & Environment offers free COVID-19 vaccine clinics and transportation to locations across the county. If you are not able to sign up online or need a translator, call 651-430-6655 Monday-Friday between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Many other vaccination opportunities are available in the community, including primary care and pharmacies.
