Barely a year in, Dr. Amy Steiner has found a great fit in Orono. She loves the rigorous high standards along with the "small town feel" in a district that centrally locates their elementary, middle and high school, giving students a chance to work and tutor those in lower grades. Dr. Steiner's background involves working with special needs students, which has driven her to emphasize success, and develop pathways for success, for all students no matter their abilities. Dr. Steiner comes into a district that sends 90% of their students to college. She also is proud of their partnership with Hennepin Technical, which gives students a chance to explore careers in cuisine, law enforcement, construction, automotive and more. In this interview you'll learn:
*How new students receive help from other students
*The inclusive positive culture of the student body
*That almost 90% of students are involved in outside activities, and how the new Orono Activity Center has contributed to school activities
*What parents need to do when considering a move to Orono
