Ramsey County sheriff starting 'public service' charter school

Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher, along with others from his staff, is making a foray into education as one of the founders of a new east metro charter school.

The School of Leadership for Public Service will serve students in grades six through 10 starting in the 2022-23 school year. According to the school's website, it would grow over time and eventually serve students from kindergarten through 12th grade.

Other Sheriff's Office employees affiliated with the new school are public information officer Roy Magnuson, a former teacher who is listed as a founder of the school, and Ramsey County Undersheriff Bill Finney, who serves on the charter school's board. The board also includes several educators with a range of teaching experience.
