Mission:

The mission of Jordan Public Schools is to create and deliver quality educational services for all learners.

About Us:


Jordan, located on Hwy 169, just seven miles south of Shakopee, offers a small-town atmosphere, yet easy access to the metro area. Jordan's school uniqueness is its single campus which houses all of the district schools. The district has excellent facilities, with the oldest of its facilities being built in 1965 and the newest in 2003. Our facilities are single story buildings, completely handicapped accessible, and all are airconditioned.

The district prides itself on its low class sizes in its elementary and its all-day every-day kindergarten program, which is fully funded by the district. The district's Early Childhood Family Education program, its Early Childhood Special Education program, its Preschool program, its before and after school daycare program, and its Headstart program are located in the elementary.

The elementary offers a variety of options including self-contained classrooms, a multi-age classroom, looping classrooms, and team-teaching. It has a self-contained computer lab, as well as computers in the media center and classrooms. A full complement of specialists are available in Special Education, English as a Second Language, and Title One Reading and Math. The curriculum is evaluated on a five-year cycle.
