SHARED TIME NONPUBLIC

SHARED TIME NONPUBLIC is a Title I public school that is part of the Saint Paul Public Schools school district, located in SAINT PAUL, 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 location at 360 Colborne Street in Saint Paul, Minnesota, serves as the central hub for the **Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) Shared Time program**. This specialized program is designed to provide students enrolled in nonpublic (private or parochial) schools with access to specific elective courses, specialized resources, and extracurricular opportunities that may not be available at their home institutions. By acting as a bridge between the public and private school systems, the facility allows nonpublic students to take advantage of state-funded public education offerings while maintaining their primary enrollment elsewhere.

The program at the Colborne Street facility typically focuses on academic areas that require specialized equipment or certified public school instructors, such as industrial technology, STEM-related electives, world languages, or remedial support. It functions as a flexible resource center, enabling students to "share their time" between their private academic environment and the public district’s curricular strengths. This arrangement is a common feature in Minnesota’s educational landscape, aimed at ensuring that all students, regardless of their school affiliation, have access to a broader array of educational pathways and public resources.
