Friends and Neighbors,
Everything seems to be in flux right now. Schools, jobs, day-to-day life – it’s all changing. I have received questions from many of you and I appreciate you reaching out because it gives me an opportunity to focus on what is impacting our district the most during this time. If one or two people ask a question, it is safe to assume many more of you have encountered a similar hurdle. I will continue to share resources and keep you up to date as much as possible going forward. I thought it might be helpful today to share some resources for the more recent questions:

As always, please contact me with your questions or concerns at 651-296-5655 or sen.mary.kiffmeyer@senate.mn. I remain available and ready to help however I can! We will get through this together. You all are in my prayers and I wish you the best health during this time.
