Welcome to the Pepin Elementary Homepage
A message from the principal, Ms. Gnos:
Welcome to the web page of Pepin Elementary School! Since 1854, the community of Pepin has supported the goal of education for all of its children. One of the most famous of those children was the author, Laura Ingalls Wilder, who was a student at the Barry Corner School in rural Pepin County. From the many small rural school houses of Pepin County came to be Pepin Area Schools, which today offers a solid and basic education, grades K-12. We strive to teach and develop each child to his or her fullest potential. Small class sizes mean that there is a lot of attention given to each learner.
We offer music, physical education, art, health and guidance to all grades. From 4 th to 6 th grade, Spanish is offered. Instrumental music is available to all students in grades 5 and 6. Programming is available for special needs students. Pre-kindergarten (preschool) is available to all four year olds in the district. Our library media center and computer lab help to extend our classroom far beyond our walls.
We invite you to visit us if you are thinking of making the move to our beautiful bluff country.
Lydia Gnos, Elementary Principal
