Families

The July 12 issue of the Community e-Newsletter is now available! The publication covers student and staff successes, School Board news, and school and Community Education offerings.

As the Building Our Future construction projects come to fruition – with the Early Childhood and Transition Education spaces at Sunrise being finalized to welcome those programs in the fall – it is a meaningful time to pause and reflect on this transformation that has been a massive undertaking.

Students, families and community members are invited to enjoy the perfect sing-a-long of the summer as the White Bear Lake Area Schools Summer Community Theatre presents "Grease." Show times are at 7 p.m. July 23-25, and at 2 p.m. on July 26 at the WBLAHS Performing Arts Center.

Minor changes to start and dismissal time changes for the district’s middle schools and high schools will be implemented in the fall of 2026-27. The changes will allow the district’s transportation system to run more efficiently and to avoid transportation-related delays and disruptions.

At the June School Board meeting, Associate Principal Jenni Sjosten shared an update on the district’s former Area Learning Center, which has been officially recognized by the Minnesota Department of Education as an Alternative Learning Program (ALP). As a program of White Bear Lake Area High School, this transition creates even stronger opportunities for collaboration with WBLAHS while deepening the program’s connection to the White Bear community.

We're back this summer at Marketfest, which runs Thursdays, June 18-July 30 in Downtown White Bear Lake.
