2025-26 Handbooks
Student and family handbooks are essential tools to help create a shared understanding of school expectations, policies, and resources. They provide important information about daily procedures, academic standards, behavior guidelines, and support services to ensure everyone knows what is expected and how to navigate the school year successfully. By reviewing the handbook together, students and families can stay informed, support one another, and partner more effectively with school staff to nurture a safe, respectful, and inclusive learning environment.
All students and age groups should review the Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook. Families should review the handbook for their student(s) age group and school.

Discipline Complaint Procedure
Minnesota Statute Section 121A.61 requires the School District to enact a districtwide school discipline policy that contains a discipline complaint procedure that students, parents and other guardians, and school staff may use to file a complaint and seek corrective action regarding the when the requirements of Minnesota Statutes Sections 121A.40 to 121A.61, including the implementation of the local behavior and discipline policies are not being implemented appropriately or are being discriminatively applied. SSPPS urges that parties first attempt to resolve complaints with the principal or assistant principal before filing a formal complaint. If these attempts have been unsuccessful, a formal complaint may be filed using the Discipline Complaint Procedure Form.
