Tuesday night, at Wachter Middle School, about 50 people, including Bismarck School Board members and school administrators met for the first of three meetings about the idea of expanding to accommodate for the surplus of students.
Earlier this week, Bismarck Public Schools agreed on a dollar amount to increase space at their middle schools and high schools. The total amount would be in the form of a $57.5 million bond.
With the teacher shortage in North Dakota becoming a bigger problem by the day, Superintendent for Public Instruction Kristin Baesler has proposed an idea that could be good for students and school districts alike.
