SHARED TIME PROGRAM

SHARED TIME PROGRAM is a Title I public school that is part of the Mounds View Public School District school district, located in SHOREVIEW, MN offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education.

The **SHARED TIME PROGRAM**, located at 4570 Victoria St. N. in Shoreview, Minnesota, serves as a unique educational bridge primarily designed for students attending non-public schools (such as private or parochial schools) or those who are homeschooled. The program allows these students to enroll in specific courses—typically those that may be difficult to resource independently, such as advanced sciences, specialized arts, physical education, or technical electives—offered through the local public school district. By providing access to these specialized facilities, equipment, and certified teaching staff, the program ensures that students receive a well-rounded academic experience while remaining enrolled in their primary educational setting.

Functioning as a collaborative effort between the public school system and the non-public/homeschool community, the SHARED TIME PROGRAM promotes educational equity by granting students access to public resources. It is highly valued for its flexibility, as it allows families to supplement their existing curriculum with high-quality elective or core courses without having to commit to a full-time transfer. Ultimately, the program fosters a partnership that supports diverse learning needs, allowing students to benefit from the breadth of a public school curriculum while maintaining their chosen educational environment.
