Welcome to Dassel Elementary!

    What's Happening at Dassel Elementary

    • Educate. Innovate. Succeed.

      Dassel Elementary is a place where we ask students and staff members to “Just make a mark and see where it takes you.” Teachers and support staff engage, nurture, and support students in a way that helps each individual child see that they have amazing potential if they just try.

      Hello!  My name is Ryan Weinandt, and I am the Dassel Elementary Principal. 

      I am excited to be here at Dassel Elementary and look forward to partnering with our students, staff, families and community in the education process. 

      I was a second-grade teacher for 10 years at Cokato Elementary, the DCMS Dean of Students for eight years, and began being the Dassel Elementary Principal in 2022. 

      I live in Dassel Township and am proud to be living and raising my family here in our district.  I enjoy visiting national parks, outdoor activities, and playing/coaching sports.  Please contact me if you need any assistance.  Ryan.Weinandt[at]dc.k12.mn.us or (320) 286-4100 ext. 1504.
