Busing : We are still working hard to get things set up for the school year. Part of our COVID Back to School Plan is students may only have one address for pick up and one address for drop off. There will not be bus passes. If you need to change your pick up or drop off please call transportation 218-694-6122 as soon as possible.
Parent Drop off: Students may be dropped off starting at 8:00. Classes start at 8:24. Students must be dropped off at the South Cafeteria Door. Students will not be able to enter through other doors including the office door. Parents/Guardians will not be able to walk students to class due to COVID requirements.
Parent Pick-up: Parent picked up will be located in the East parking lot starting at 2:40. Parents picking up students will stay in their vehicle and follow the cone drive in the parking lot. School Staff will radio in the building to let the students know when to come out and meet you. If you are planning on picking up your student instead of riding the bus, please notify the office by 2:00.

Good Evening Bagley Flyers! As you may have heard, this past Saturday the Bagley School Board voted for In Person Learning with the option for families to opt out of in person and go Distance Learning. If you haven't registered please do so to ensure a smooth back to school experience. We are excited to welcome students back in the building. Please remember, In Person Learning will be different than school prior to Covid 19. Keep a close eye out for more updates throughout the week about open house, transportation, schedules, teacher assignments, and supply lists.Thank you for your support in helping us follow the safety precautions to make In Person Learning safe for everyone.

Happy Tuesday Bagley Flyers! Last night the Bagley School Board hosted a live Zoom session, that had over 100 guests. We reviewed our plans for the upcoming school year. The Bagley School Board had a focused discussion and brought up important concerns and advocated what they thought was best for our students. Three motions were put forward and resulted in a tie vote. Because of the three failed attempts to pass the motion, the action item was tabled to a later date. The special board meeting has been set for Saturday, August 22 at 8am. Here is the link to the proposed plan that was presented at last night's meeting. https://sites.google.com/bagley.k12.mn.us/bagleypublicschools/home
Thank you for your patience in this matter. We are not taking this decision lightly. We want what is best for your children, our students, and the Bagley community.
