Palmer Bus has been providing transportation services to the Nashwauk-Keewatin community since 2024, safely transporting approximately 580 students each day within the Nashwauk-Keewatin School District #319, which includes students from Pre K through 12th grade in Itasca County.

Located approximately 197 miles north of the Twin Cities, Nashwauk and Keewatin were originally separate school districts until they merged in 1962/1963 to form the Nashwauk-Keewatin Spartans. The Keewatin Tigers and Nashwauk Colts, with respective school colors of black and orange, and blue and white, came together as one school with the colors orange and blue to represent unity.
