Good afternoon,
The school district received information from the Minnesota Department of Education this morning, regarding a trend happening nationally on TikTok, a video-focused social media platform. The challenge is for the user to report a false threat to a school. I have included the email from MDE for you to read and encourage you to be vigilant with your child regarding anything they may see or hear on social media. Our best defense is with our students, families, and community to report anything unusual or alarming they may see or hear. As of this email, there has not been any "threat" made to Battle Lake School but I felt it necessary for you to be aware of the issue and possibly have a conversation with your child(ren) on how dangerous this "challenge" can be for them and their school.
Any threats made will be reported to the local police and they will investigate.
Thank you for your continued support
Due to the WINTER STORM WARNING Battle Lake Schools will be 2 hours late on Thursday 12/16.

Please do not send peanut butter/tree nuts to school. Several people in our building have this severe allergy to peanuts and tree nuts, which requires strict avoidance, as the only means to prevent an allergic reaction. Accidental contact or ingestion can be fatal. We are asking that EVERYONE please be mindful of this when sending food and/or bringing food into our school (lunches, snack and treats).
Some Nut-Free Snacks may include: fruits, vegetables, cheese, yogurt, applesauce, goldfish, saltine crackers, cheese crackers, graham crackers, vanilla wafers, popcorn and fruit snacks.
Peanut Butter Alternatives: WOW-Butter, Sun-Butter or Biscoff Cookie Butter
Thank you!
