Williston Basin School District Boundary Community Discussion will be held on April 26th and April 27th starting at 5:30 PM at Hagan Elementary School.
What Will this discussion look like?
WBSD#7 is utilizing RSP & Associates consulting firm to guide us through a boundary discussion and decision-making process. We will host two community forums in April where RSP will gather input and feedback from all stakeholders in the community on this topic. RSP will then provide this information for the District and the Board to use to make the best decisions they can for our students and community.

Students in the fourth grade were able to explore some of the STEM bins that were bought throughout this year. This is part of our STEM library that all Rickard staff will have access to check out for their classes to use. Mrs. Lippert and Mrs. Carnes received $20,000 from the Northwest North Dakota Community Foundation Grayson Mill Energy STEM Education Fellowship. Thank you for spending the time and effort to purchase and put together these items for our students! This will be an amazing addition to our school!
The fourth graders went to an FFA sponsored field trip at Williston State College.
