Blue Heron Elementary is a school where minds soar and dreams take flight!
Located in Lino Lakes, Blue Heron serves more than 700 students in a safe, respectful, and purposeful learning environment where all students have the opportunity and responsibility to grow to their full social, emotional and academic potential.
Blue Heron prides itself on strong relationships among staff, students and families. Our families are active partners, working with staff to instill high expectations for all students.

At Blue Heron, we value teamwork, leadership, a sense of community, innovation, discipline, communication and, most of all, fun!
