Capital Projects Levy for Technology (Tech Levy)
A primary source of technology funding at Mahtomedi Public Schools is a voter-approved Capital Projects Levy for Technology (commonly called a technology levy).

The technology levy funds staff and student devices, critical technology infrastructure, training and tech support, and essential teaching and learning tools. This levy has been in place since 2002 and is up for renewal by voters in our community on November 2, 2021.

A renewal means no tax increase and would provide sustainable, ongoing funding for our current technology devices and technology support for our students and staff.

For more information, visit our website at www.mahtomedi.k12.mn.us/techlevy Vote early or on November 2, 2021. For more information about early voting in Washington County, please visit their website at www.co.washington.mn.us/670/Absentee-Voting

O.H. Anderson Garden Club Grows Love for Gardening
This school year O.H. Anderson Elementary School students and staff started a garden club. The garden club has created garden space around the school’s rock garden and at different areas around the outside of the school. The goal is to get students to enjoy the outdoors and take pride and ownership for beautifying the front of the school. Students participated in the garden club after school and during recess time. The garden club was organized by Amy Finden, special education teacher and Lisa Channon, speech and language pathologist. Ms. Finden shared this about the club, “Due to a variety of reasons the students who we work with don’t often participate in after-school activities. Being a part of a garden club during the school day is a wonderful way to get General and Special education students to work together.”

Elementary Students Inspire School Community to Sa
Nine fifth-grade students from O.H. Anderson Elementary School recently completed their Bronze Award for Girl Scouts. The students worked over the last two years on a project to encourage fellow students to conserve energy. The students organized a lights off challenge in May of 2021 that encouraged in-person and distance learning students to shut the lights off when they left a room. Students at O.H. Anderson were recorded shutting off the lights 609 times!
