Crimson boys soccer loses in heartbreaker at state

As the favored seed in the state tournament quarterfinals, Maple Grove boys soccer had a tough task on its hand. Familiar foe St. Paul Central was the first-round opponent on Oct. 29. The two teams had met in the season, and the Crimson survived a 5-3 slugfest. This time, the Minutemen won and ended the Crimson's season in penalty kicks. The first half started exactly how the Crimson drew it up. In the first 10 minutes, star senior midfielder Parker Carlson managed to control a bouncing ball on the Minutemen side of the field. Carlson made a couple moves and fired a through pass between a flurry of Minutemen defenders. Fellow senior and captain Bodi Nelson took the pass and rifled a perfect left footed shot past the goalkeeper into the back of the net. The Crimson now played with the lead, but both teams would continue to find offensive opportunities. The Minutemen had a few shots or drive in close to the goal that goalkeeper Raidyn Bailey stopped. The best play of the game from Bailey came near the end of the first half. Leading 1-0, a cross came into the box and a header directed at the ground

Local voters approve school funding increase

MONTICELLO — Public school districts across Minnesota, including those serving Monticello, Big Lake and Becker, will receive additional funding beginning next summer after voters overwhelmingly approved a constitutional amendment increasing annual payments from the state's Permanent School Fund. The amendment, approved in Tuesday's general election, increases the amount distributed annually from the $2.3 billion fund, which supports public education without raising income or property taxes. Unofficial statewide results early Wednesday showed approximately 73% of voters supporting the measure, with 23% opposed and 4% leaving the question blank. Locally, the amendment received majority support in Monticello, Big Lake and Becker, as well as their surrounding townships, according to unofficial results from the Minnesota Secretary of State's Office. Support was strongest in Monticello, where 4,309 voters supported the amendment and 1,695 opposed it. Including ballots left blank, the measure received 68.8% support in the city. In Big Lake, 64.1% of voters supported the amendment, while Becker voters approved it with 60.7% support. Voters in the surrounding townships were less supportive. The amendment received 57.8% support in Monticello Township, 56.4% in Big Lake Township and 55.5% in Becker Township.

Westonka tops state districts in reading, math

Westonka Public Schools ranked first in Minnesota in overall reading and math proficiency, according to 2026 state assessment results released by the Minnesota Department of Education on Sept. 30. Mark Femrite, assistant superintendent for Teaching and Learning, presented the results to the Westonka School Board at its Oct. 12 meeting. The rankings include districts that tested at least 100 students per grade level. The results reflect the percentage of students scoring proficient or above on Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments and Minnesota Test of Academic Skills assessments. Westonka ranked first statewide in reading for grades three, four, five and seven and in math for grades four, five and seven. The district also ranked fifth statewide in science proficiency and placed in the top five on 13 of 17 state assessments. Femrite attributed the results to strong classroom instruction and teachers’ efforts to engage students and address individual needs. The district also hosted community roundtables Oct. 27 and 28 focused on construction, machining and health care careers. The discussions brought together educators, industry professionals and community members to learn about the courses, tour Westonka High School’s new lab spaces and discuss ways to support students.
