Laporte School offers small classes, personal engagement

Laporte’s “school on the hill” offers a wide range of educational activities for students in preschool through grade 12.

In addition to the traditional courses, the school offers vocational instruction, including manufacturing, robotics and automotive classes. They are rebuilding what will be a robust music program with plenty of enthusiasm for band involvement.

The school was recognized statewide for its wellness initiatives, healthy options for meals and snacks, and a renowned garden program which educates students about sustainability practices, responsibility, and whole body nutrition.

Laporte continues to boast small class sizes allowing for more individualized attention and engagement.

PBIS is now fully implemented and complements this inclusive environment focusing on positive behavior reinforcement and restorative approaches as students learn to navigate the world around them.

Community education programs allow the continued involvement of all ages.

The K-12 facility was built with community use in mind. The school welcomes many students from outside the district through open enrollment. The school’s number is 218-2242288,visit www.laporte.k12.mn.us or follow us on Facebook.
