Back to School
Action needed: Complete the Back-to-School Update by August 31, 2024
Every year, District 622 asks the primary household member to update their Campus Parent account. Verifying family and student information is important to ensure you receive proper services, eligible transportation, and important communications by mail, phone, text, and email. Bus routes for eligible students can only be scheduled once this information is updated.
July 15 to Aug 31, 2024 - update open for returning families
Aug 15 to Aug 31, 2024 - update open for new-to-622 families
New families will receive an email on August 15 with instructions for logging into their accounts to complete the annual update and access all the features of Campus Parent.
Note that you will not be able to access the other Campus Parent features until this review has been completed.
Visit isd622.org/campusparent to log in and complete this step.

Note: To provide more current and up-to-date offerings, we have transitioned and condensed our brochure and are using QR codes. Instead of listing all of our classes in the brochure, you can now easily view our current offerings and register online by simply scanning the QR codes within. This change allows us to keep you informed of the most recent and exciting educational opportunities available!
How to use the QR codes in the printed brochure:
- If you are viewing the brochure in printed form, grab your smartphone and open the camera app.
- Point your camera at the QR code in the brochure.
- A notification will appear on your screen – tap on it.
- You will be directed to our online platform where you can explore and register for classes.
- We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you in our upcoming programs!
*Special mention goes to Harmony Adult Education student Pasia Tho, who designed the cover of the brochure, and to Justice Alan Page teacher Lori Kolberg, who designed the back cover. Thank you to all who participated. We look forward to the next round of contest entries.
F.L.I.G.H.T
A new after school program for middle schoolers will begin this fall. This program is paid for by the Minnesota Department of Education After-School Community Learning grant and will be offered at no charge to participants. The main purpose will be to provide students with a wide variety of enrichment clubs, academic support, leadership opportunities and culturally affirming clubs. Students will be able to participate in clubs with focuses on art, science, financial literacy, athletics, cultural appreciation, theater, debate, music and much more. Many clubs will also contain an academic focus that will qualify them as Targeted Services classes and that will allow students to improve vital academic skills while enrolled in the club. Clubs will be run by a combination of licensed teachers, paraprofessionals, outside vendors and student leaders from within ISD 622. We are currently looking to hire high school students who have a passion that they would like to share. Employment begins in September.
Share your passion and teach a new class!

*A submitted proposal is NOT an approved class. You will be contacted by the Community Education office to discuss your proposal as well as dates, times, and location for your class.

Measles and the MMR vaccine
Minnesota has identified cases of measles in children who recently returned to the U.S. after traveling internationally. The decline in measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine coverage, coupled with the increase in measles disease nationally and internationally, puts Minnesota at risk of additional measles cases and a measles outbreak.
MDH has information about measles and the MMR vaccine: https://www.health.state.mn.us/diseases/measles/measlesfacts.html
If your child has any symptoms, please contact your medical provider and school nurse.
Washington County Vaccination Clinics
Washington County is offering monthly vaccination clinics. Appointments can be scheduled on the Washington County website.
