The Mandan Public School calendar is divided into four 9-week quarters. Report cards are distributed at parent-teacher conferences or the week after the grading period ends.
Test scores
Mandan students score higher on the ACT than at the state and national levels. Mandan Public School students also score higher on the North Dakota State Assessment than students across the state.
The official school/team colors are black and white, although red has been adopted by some as an alternate or accent color. All of the athletic teams are named the Mandan Braves. Currently, the logo associated with the Braves is a side profile view headshot of a Native American wearing a headdress.
