Birch Lake Elementary fourth and fifth graders got into character this week to practice their performance of “Seussical the Musical”.

District staff, students, community members and board members enjoyed the first School Board meeting in the new board meeting location, the Community Room, at Sunrise Park District Service Center on March 3.

Students at Birch Lake Elementary listened to Minnesota author Keean Jones read his book “Saturday Morning at the Shop”. His visit is part of Birch Lake’s “I Love to Read Month” activities and was highlighted in this video issue of the district's The Week in 62.4 Seconds.

Preschool registration is now open! We offer a safe and nurturing environment for a child’s first school experience away from home in our four star (highest possible rating) Parent Aware rated programs.

White Bear Lake Area Schools (WBLAS) recently conducted a community and parent survey to gather insights into the district's performance and community perception. The results, presented by Peter Leatherman from The Morris Leatherman Company at a School Board work session, highlight a strong sense of satisfaction and support from both district residents and parents.

If winter weather is so severe that schools need to close, families will be alerted via phone, email and text to those with texting capabilities. The message will be posted on the district's website and social media accounts, and the information will also be available on local media outlets.

A Building Our Future Update 2024 video was recently created and shared out on the district's website. This fifth annual update video provides an overview of progress that has been made across the district since the comprehensive facilities review and planning work began in 2018 and the community supported the Building Our Future Bond Referendum in 2019.

Registration is now open for students entering kindergarten in Fall 2025! We offer strong neighborhood school programs and district-wide options with IB and dual immersion.
