If your child(ren) will be gone or late, you MUST call the attendance line: 952-758-1405 (24/7, before 8:00 a.m. on the day that they will be gone) or main office line: 952-758-1400 (after 8:00 a.m.) or have your child bring a note to the office in the morning before or on the day you will be gone. If your child will be leaving early, have them bring a note to the office first thing in the morning to get a pass.

If your child is ill during the school day, please have them go to the nurse's office. The nurse will call home, if needed. Please remember that students should not be using their phones during the school day, unless a staff member knows about and has okayed it.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Dear Families,

On January 7, 9 and 10, our New Prague Middle School 7th grade students had the incredible opportunity to attend Finance Park, a dynamic program organized by Junior Achievement. As they stepped into this immersive world of financial literacy, the excitement was evident. The event was not just an educational experience; it was a day filled with discovery, engagement and newfound enthusiasm for understanding personal finance. Thanks to Mrs. Borwege for facilitating this new curriculum and coordinating the field trip! Also, thank you to the parent/guardian chaperones who assisted in making this a great experience.

***COMING SOON***

There will be a change to the morning drop off at NPMS. Please be on the lookout for the communication of what this will look like and when it will begin.

Mr. Gregor and Mr. Bell
