The Equity Promise

Mounds View Public Schools is committed to preparing all students for opportunities of their choice after high school, whether they choose a college, a trade school, a technical college, the military, or employment.

The Equity Promise states:

Programs and services will be in place at all schools to ensure that race, gender, class and disability will not predict students’ success in Mounds View Public Schools. Student academic performance will not fall into patterns identifiable by factors such as race, ethnicity, English language proficiency, socio-economic status and disability

The school that a student attends will not be the predictor of his/her school success

Cultural Liaisons

District cultural liaisons are available for translations and to meet students' and their families' educational and cultural needs. District liaisons host cultural activities and events throughout the year and aim to assist students in attaining academic success.
