Board Says No to Middle School
By Les Johnson
The Board of School Division 51 has voted on the motion proposing a Middle School for Grand Forks and they voted against it. One board trustee voted for the proposal.
Previous meetings where this was discussed saw large audiences and based on this experience they apparently thought more people would attend this meeting as well. It was moved from their office across the street to Dr. D. A. Perley school gym but unfortunately not that many people showed up to hear the decision.
