Good morning,
The bus issue has been resolved, and is going again. IF YOUR CHILD NEEDS TO BE PICKED UP STILL, PLEASE CALL THE SCHOOL AND THE BUS WILL COME. If we do not hear from a parent, we will assume the students have an alternate ride to school.
Good morning,
Due to a bus issue, the orange bus (Dale's bus) cannot continue its route at this time. There will be NO orange bus pick-ups this morning! If your child is unable to get to school today, please call the school so we can arrange for alternate transportation for those that need it.
The students that are currently on the orange bus are safe, and warm. We are sending out alternate transportation to pick them up. We will send more updates if needed.
Please call the school with any questions!
Intramural Basketball for grades 4-6 will now start at 1:30PM beginning tomorrow (1/19). Please click on the link for the updated schedule. Note that the last Friday (2/15), Intramurals will start at 9:50, because it is a half day of school. Please call the school if you have any questions. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fVpE-3qZuDdkzGaBMQtDO-yRy-cp8Wf3_bPlQuAeYCc/edit?usp=sharing
Attention Students & Parents:

Due to most of the teams deciding not to come to the snowflake League games today due to weather, Clearbrook is canceling today's Snowflake League games in Clearbrook. It was not our decision to cancel and we were planning on coming as of this morning, it was other schools decision to cancel as of this morning due to weather south of us. Clearbrook did not have a choice, because there wasn't enough teams to make it happen today.
Once again, our Snowflake League games in Clearbrook are canceled for today.
Please let Mr. Loberg know if you have any questions.
Good afternoon! Due to bus troubles, the Yellow Route (Tony's route) will be dropping students off 10-15 minutes late today, Thursday, January 4th. Please call the school if you have any questions.

Effective immediately, all student absences (regardless of grade) should be reported TO THE OFFICE no later than 8:30 A.M. Any student that has not had their attendance reported to the office will be reported as unexcused for their absence. When a student is absent, the office will record attendance and notify the proper teacher.
How can I notify the office of my student's absence? You can either:
1) Report the absence through the ParentVUE app
2) Email: cynthia.jensen@goodridgeisd561.org
3) Call the office: 218-378-4134
If an elementary student is getting picked up after school or any other bus change, the parent or guardian should notify the office prior to 2:00 pm. The office will then notify the classroom teacher and the bus driver.
Please refrain from contacting staff via personal phone numbers or through social media. All staff are encouraged to respond to messages during normal business hours and through proper communication tools such as the school phone, email, or the Rooms mobile app.
If you have any questions, please call the office.
