Covid-19 Update #8
This information was sent to families on 7/24/2020
Magnuson Christian School Family and Community,
Our school is committed to providing a safe and healthy workplace for all staff, students, and anyone on the school premises. To ensure we have a safe and healthy school, MCS has developed the following COVID-19 Preparedness Plan. (To request Magnuson Christian School’s Preparedness Plan, please email hello@magnusonschool.org.) We believe this plan allows for onsite learning to safely resume this fall.
This week Governor Walz announced Executive Order 20-81 requiring all Minnesotans to wear a face-covering inside public buildings. This mandate references private schools. We are currently working with the Minnesota Independent Schools Forum to determine if this order will impact Magnuson Christian School. It is our intention and desire to encourage the use of masks during school but to allow the final decision to rest in the hands of parents. Please note that our plan may need to be adapted after the full impact of Executive Order 20-81 on private schools is determined.
We will continue to seek more clarification about this latest mandate and update the Magnuson Christian School community and families as soon as possible.
As always, feel free to contact the Board with any questions at hello@magnusonschool.org.
Sincerely in Christ,
Magnuson Christian School Board of Directors

Covid-19 Update #7
This information was sent to families on 6/19/2020
After carefully reviewing information related to COVID-19; and participating in discussions with independent and private school leaders, White Bear Lake Public Schools, and health professionals; the Magnuson Christian School Board of Directors have made the decision to return to in-person learning for the 2020-2021 school year.
A preliminary safety plan has been created, and a task group has been formed to ensure all possible health and safety measures will be considered. This plan will be shared in July, and we will provide a time for families to ask questions. We also understand some families need to continue with distance learning, so a plan will be created to meet those needs as well.
This has been a trying time for all, and there are many factors to consider. In the end, we believe returning to school is the best option. We will take every precaution to protect the health and safety of our students, families, and staff.
As always, feel free to contact the Board with any questions at hello@magnusonschool.org.
Sincerely in Christ,
Magnuson Christian School Board of Directors
