SPPS and Metro Transit Partner to Get Students to School

Due to the nationwide school bus driver shortage, SPPS and Metro Transit have teamed up to get students to school on time in Saint Paul. Students at seven high schools are now eligible to receive a free transit pass.

Student Display Names

SPPS is committed to developing a positive and inclusive school and District culture. One way we’re doing that is by affirming all students and using their preferred names in classrooms and digital learning spaces. Learn more about student display names.

Keep Learning Safely

As we continue in-person learning, students and families can help keep our community healthy and learning safely by staying home when sick, social distancing where possible and wearing face coverings correctly. SPPS also recommends that all students, regardless of vaccination status, get tested weekly for COVID-19.

Celebrate Walk and Bike to School Day

SPPS invites families and schools to celebrate Walk and Bike to School Day on the week of October 4-8. Not only are walking and biking to school fun, they’re also healthy, good for the environment, and can help students feel more energized and ready to learn.
