Introduction

Welcome to the 2020-2021 edition of the St. Louis Park city-school calendar!

For the first time ever, the calendar is being published electronically only, with no paper version. The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic makes it difficult to project months in advance the conditions for various important dates, events and programs. This electronic version allows the greatest flexibility for updating and providing the most current information.

We know that for many of you who reserve a spot on your refrigerator, bulletin board or wall for the annual calendar, this electronic version may be a disappointment. However, we believe this was the most responsible choice this year not only to provide the most updated, current information to users, but also to ensure money wasn’t spent on a publication that was likely to be outdated almost as soon as it arrived in mailboxes.

If you prefer a printed copy, the calendar was designed with simplicity in mind to allow it to be printed without draining your ink tank. We understand that not everyone has access to a computer or the internet in order to view this calendar. Those who are unable to access the calendar online may contact the city or the school district to receive printed information.

We appreciate your understanding and hope you’ll enjoy this year’s city-school calendar. Best wishes for a safe and healthy year!

”Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness.

People are just people, and all people have faults and shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness.“ - Anne Frank WWW.SLPSCHOOLS.ORG | @SLPUBLICSCHOOLS | 952.928.6000

1 “All of us, at some time or other, need help. Whether we're giving or receiving help, each one of us has something valuable to bring to this world. That's one of the things that connects us as neighbors – in our own way, each one of us is a giver and a receiver.” - Mr. Rogers
