MELA Board

MELA School Board
The board includes six members, each of whom is deeply rooted in Minnesota's public education landscape. Currently consisting of experienced educators, involved community members, and parents, our board will explore expansion in order to accurately reflect the community we serve. All board meetings are open to the public and take place at the school (9060 Zanzibar Ln N, Maple Grove, MN 55311). Meetings are held every other month on the second Thursday at 5:00 p.m., unless otherwise posted.
School Board Meetings
​According to Minnesota Statue 13D.021, school boards are not in violation of the Open Meeting Law if the Board Chair declares an in-person meeting is not practical or prudent. In light of the Peacetime State of Emergency by Governor Waltz for COVID-19, Board Chair Joseph Scherer has determined all scheduled board meetings will be held via Zoom web conferencing during the Governor’s called order of distance learning for Minnesota schools. The links for individual meetings will publicly published on our board page below.
