ST. CLOUD, Minn. — The St. Cloud Area School District will officially launch Full-Service Community Schools at Discovery Community School and North Junior High this month.

Last year, the school district was awarded a 5-year, $2.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education to provide wrap-around services at both schools in 2025, with community organizations.

Research shows that positive learning environments where students receive nutritional, dental, vision, and mental health services, are critical for academic growth. This grant provides the resources and support needed to create those environments.

Families at Discovery and North Junior High are invited to kickoff events on Tuesday, January 21, 2025, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. or on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
