Dayton’s Bluff Dragons
...are prepared for a rewarding future!
Today's families and students want more than traditional textbook education.
We are blazing new trails with whole-child education and personalized academics. A consistent environment develops strong learners and leaders as we help students thrive both in and out of school. More than that, we support our families and Pre-K to 5th-grade students with convenient, free after-school care and programs - as well as many health services - in an atmosphere that lets them know they belong. Dayton's Bluff is where tomorrow's leaders learn in a close-knit community striving for excellence at every level.
Young Minds Challenged
Students at Dayton’s Bluff are encouraged to ask questions, solve problems, and discover how things work. And our whole-child, personalized learning approach helps students thrive with personalized learning and attention to help them wherever they are in their educational journey. With classes in science, music, and physical education, each child receives a full day of learning through core academics and other activities.
THE DAYTON'S BLUFF DIFFERENCE
Social-Emotional Growth
We recognize students need more than academic instruction to unlock their full potential; they need support that includes emotional development and social skills to confidently tackle future challenges. Dayton’s Bluff is the recipient of Minnesota’s 2023
Sustaining Exemplar Schools for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS). Our staff helps students gain confidence, resolve conflict, build healthy relationships both in and out of school, and form lasting friendships.
Our Priority Enrollment Deadline for the 2024-2025 school year is February 23, 2024.
