Dear Parents,

The Sauk Rapids City Council web site defines the city council as:

"The City Council, being the elected representatives of eh City of Sauk Rapids and charged with the responsibility of establishing policies for the operation and management of City affairs in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations are hereby created to establish a uniform and equitable system of personnel administration of CIty of Sauk Rapids personnel. CIty policy is amended automatically as may be mandated by State and Federal Laws."

But what does that mean?

As part of our Focus Friday activities, the fourth graders will be writing thank you letters to the city council members. We are asking you, as parents, to help your child come up with a list of what the city council does for our family in Sauk Rapids. Please discuss this issue with your child and help them identify and understand the functions and regulations that the Sauk Rapids City Council reviews and performs for its citizens. This task is due by Friday, November 14th.


Thank you!
The 4th Grade Teachers
