Visual Description:An educational flyer discussing Minnesota's Permanent School Fund (PSF). The top section shows a young girl with glasses smiling at her classroom desk with classmates working behind her. An orange outline logo of Minnesota with child figures and a heart sits beside the text "PERMANENT SCHOOL FUND". The lower portion contains informational text columns, an illustrative map of school trust lands across Minnesota, a QR code, and sponsor copyright details. Text Content:Top Header: EVERY MINNESOTA PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENT IS PART OF A TRUST FUND. Callout Banner (Green Bar):This fall all Minnesotans can vote to pass a constitutional amendment modernizing how Minnesota's Permanent School Fund supports students, schools, and communities. Without raising existing taxes or costing Minnesotans more money. Left Column – Minnesota's Permanent School Fund:Minnesota's Permanent School Fund (PSF) is one of the oldest funding sources for public education in our state. Constitutionally established in 1858, the PSF is built on proceeds from public lands set aside to support public education. It acts as a permanent endowment, continually generating revenue from Minnesota's natural resources. Over 2.5 million acres plus 1 million mineral-rights acres remain today, intermingled with county, federal, tribal, and private lands. Revenues from timber sales, mining, land leases, and other resource activities contribute to the fund. Assets are invested by the State Board of Investment to support current and future generations of students. Website & QR Code: MORE INFORMATION HERE! www.minnesotaPSFamendment.org Right Column – Map & Facts ("Where are the school trust public lands?"):A map of Minnesota shows school trust lands heavily clustered in the northern portion of the state. Source note: Office of School Trust Lands, State of Minnesota. 92% of trust lands are located in 10 northern Minnesota counties, as most southern lands were sold in the 1800s for agriculture. Lands include forests, grasslands, farmlands, construction aggregate, and mineral production. A significant portion is low-lying, inaccessible wetlands.

A photo in the upper left shows a cyclist riding a mountain bike along a sunlit forest trail. Logos at the bottom include the Permanent School Fund Minnesota outline icon and the MSBA (Minnesota School Boards Association) logo. Text Content:Top Section (Green) – WHAT ARE MINNESOTA TRUST LANDS?:Many acres of public land were set aside and put into a trust in the Minnesota Constitution in 1858 for a single and specific purpose: to generate revenue for public schools. This trust is called the Permanent School Trust. In the late 1800s much of the land in southern Minnesota was sold to private interests to promote development and agriculture. Today, over 2.5 million total acres plus 1 million acres used for mineral rights remain. Key Stats:2.5 million total acres $2.3 billion fund value $388 million distributed in past 10 years Second Section (Orange) – WHAT IS ON THE BALLOT AND WHY?:Passed in a strong bipartisan effort by the 2026 Minnesota Legislature, the November 2026 constitutional amendment would modernize how the existing fund is distributed. Checklist:Almost doubles the annual distribution percentage from 2–2.5% to 4.5% annually. Will increase per pupil annual distribution by an estimated $33 per student. Allows more stable and predictable fund distributions. Side Callouts:ONLY modernizing existing fund distributions NOT raising existing taxes Third Section (White) – WHY THIS MATTERS FOR MINNESOTA:Every community benefits: Every district. Every public school student. Every corner of Minnesota. Urban, suburban, rural. Traditional public, charter, and tribal school. Money sent directly to districts or schools with no strings attached. Financial best practices: The proposed amendment is based on recommendations from a multi-year review of the existing fund structure in order to update the fund with current financial best practices. More money per pupil: The proposed constitutional amendment would almost double per pupil payout to districts. Without raising any existing taxes for Minnesota residents. Protecting the future: If passed, this amendment will better support today's students while ensuring the fund's balance is preserved for future generations. Bottom Section – THE PROPOSED BALLOT QUESTION:OFFICIAL BALLOT LANGUAGE: "Shall the Minnesota Constitution be amended to increase the funding going to all school districts from the permanent school fund, which is a fund that supports school districts without raising individual income or property taxes, effective July 1, 2027?" CRITICAL MINNESOTA VOTING RULE (Orange Box): LEAVING THE BALLOT QUESTION BLANK IS A “NO” VOTE. If you or any other voter skips this question on their ballot but votes for other races, it is counted as a “No” vote.

🦌💙 Deer Are on the Move — Slow Down and Stay Safe!

As the seasons change, deer become more active and may cross roads when you least expect it. Please stay alert, watch the roadsides, and slow down, especially during dawn and dusk when deer are most active.

🚗 If you spot one deer, keep in mind that others may be nearby. Avoid sudden swerves, stay focused, and give yourself plenty of time to react.

Whether you're heading to school, work, practice, or home to your family, getting there safely is always worth slowing down for. 🐴🤍
