Who to Call
Whenever parents have questions, the best place to start is in the student's school. Thompson School District has adopted the philosophy of allowing as many decisions as possible to be made at the level closest to the students, staff and parents. However, most programs also have a designated coordinator for the entire district. This directory is designed to help parents find the appropriate contact person as quickly and easily as possible. The district’s main phone number is 970-613-5000.
