We will be offering four sessions of one-week each this summer. We are hopeful that all who have expressed an interest may be accommodated. Registration will be based on a combination of early return of the registration form and a balancing of the grade levels for each session. Students who were in grades 1-8 and over the age of six this year are eligible.

Students find out what it was like to attend a rural school in 1900, and we ask them to wear old-fashioned clothes, bring two sharpened lead pencils and an old-fashioned lunch in a basket or pail. Students may bring old books, toys, wooden articles, etc. to show at school.

The weeks that school will be in session are:
● June 10-14
● June 17-21
● June 24-28 (all 9am-1pm)
● July 1-5 (no school on the 4th) – 8:30am-1:30pm

School is in session from 9:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. Family and friends are welcome to visit the school any day during school hours. There will be a program by the students on Friday.

The West Riverside School is located west of Cambridge, and is one mile north of Hwy. 95 on Co. Rd. 14, so turn north at the stoplight after the bridge.

FEE: The fee for attending school this year will be $50.00 per student.

DISCOUNT: The West Riverside Museum School is run by volunteers and overseen by the Isanti County Historical Society. Because of that relationship, each student can receive a $10.00 discount if a parent or grandparent is a current member of the Isanti County Historical Society. If you wish to become a member, please click here or call 763-689-4229.

TO REGISTER: To register for West Riverside School, return the Registration Form and Fee as soon as possible (This fee is non-refundable). I will notify you only if your first choice cannot be accommodated.

If you have any questions, please call me at 689-2830.

Sincerely,
Karen Lood, West Riverside Registrar
