Statement on measles cases in Minnesota

This statement is attributable to the Minnesota Department of Health. The Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) urges anyone who has not been vaccinated against measles to get vaccinated. MDH is working closely with local public health agencies to follow up on recent measles cases and exposures. Since mid-September, there have been 25 cases of measles confirmed in two unrelated clusters in different parts of the state (6 in Fillmore County and 19 in Todd County). All of the people who got sick with measles in recent weeks were unvaccinated. Given how contagious measles is, the case count will very likely grow in the days and weeks ahead. The current total for measles cases in Minnesota is 42 cases in 2026.

Minnesota author uncovering story of rural Steele County schoolhouse

Hard as it may be to imagine today, there was a time when Steele and Waseca Counties were divided into nearly 100 school districts each. On the border of the two counties stood District 78-92, a one-room schoolhouse that served the children of Deerfield Township. Over 60 years after he left that little school, Minnesota author Ron Eustice has set out to tell its story. Eustice’s new book, “Deerfield Days: A One-Room School at the Center of a Farm Community,” chronicles the history of the district, drawing upon historical records, the recollections of students and teachers and his own experiences. Students attend class in rural District 78-92, a country school on the border of Steele and Waseca County. Minnesota author Ron Eustice, who attended the school from first through eighth grade, chronicles the history of the district in his new book “Deerfield Days.” The many schoolhouses dotting the countryside were once overseen by a county superintendent of schools. Each micro-district had its own school board, usually composed of local farmers. Teachers, most of them young single women, typically lived with the families of students. State law required districts to submit a census starting in 1915, recording the name, age and
