From an email I received a little before midnight:
In my car driving tonight I heard a radio ad for Wrenshall schools. They advertised Wrenshall as a “small, neighborhood school” not so far away. And then listed off a bunch of their offerings such as college in the schools.
I recall Wrenshall doing an ad last year, and from what I recall, there was some controversy with the Duluth Schools contacting them with complaints about them “marketing” to take Duluth’s students.
But this radio ad made it clear to me that Wrenshall School is doing something ISD 709 isn’t doing….paying attention to the public’s concerns and adapting by offering what parents are really looking for – not fancy new buildings, but small neighborhood schools with all the special individual attention that tends to come with them
