We are absolutely blown away! Yesterday, we shared 12 specific needs for winter gear, and in less than 24 hours, every single item has been purchased. Because of your generosity, students across the East Grand Forks district will head into the coldest months with the warmth and dignity they deserve. This is more than just coats and boots; it’s a message to our kids that their community truly cares about them.
East Grand Forks always goes above and beyond. Thank you for making sure our students have the support they need to succeed!

Good Morning East Grand Forks Parents, Guardians, Students, and Staff,
Due to the forecast of snow this morning which continues through the day at fairly high rates and increasing winds which will make travel more of a challenge from noon through this evening we have decided to do an e-learning day. There will be no school, students and staff should proceed with e-learning plans. Thanks for your understanding as we lookout for the safety of our students and staff.

Today is Give to the Max Day. Minnesota's annual online giving holiday, which encourages donations to local nonprofits and schools. A large-scale, one-day online fundraising event organized by GiveMN.org, it began in 2009 and has since become a major event that raises millions of dollars for causes like education, food security, and health services.
People can go to the GiveMN.org website, search for their favorite causes, such as the Down Syndrome Association of MN
In the 16 years before 2025, the event had raised more than $400 million. It helps fund a wide range of essential community work across the state.
Happy American Education Week! This week, we celebrate everyone in public schools education. Thank you for your dedication to our students! #AEW2025 #EGFPride

Dear Families,
I am writing on 9-11, a day we remember great tragedy in our country to address violence that we witnessed as a nation on Wednesday, September 10, 2025.
While speaking at a college campus in Utah, political commentator and social media influencer Charlie Kirk was fatally shot. Video of the shooting has circulated online, and it’s possible that many of our students may have viewed it.
Additionally, there was a shooting at Evergreen High School in Colorado, in which at least two students were critically injured.
We understand that our students and families may be experiencing a range of emotions in the aftermath of these terrible events. Please know that support is available. Our school counselors are ready to meet with any student who may need assistance processing their feelings. Anyone who needs support is encouraged to visit the counseling office at any time.
Events like what are mentioned above are the reason we continue to practice and update emergency response protocol. We continue to keep our facilities locked during the day and thank you for your patience and support in the modified access to our buildings for the safety of students and staff.
Now more than ever, it is important for us to model kindness and respect in our words and actions. Together, we can foster a sense of belonging and strength in our community.
Thank you for your support during this difficult time for our country and please reach out if we can be of assistance to you or your child.
Sincerely,
Kevin Grover - Superintendent
