Questions Accepted

Voters within Independent School District 361 in Koochiching County have given their blessing to two funding proposals put forward in a referendum yesterday.

Voters overwhelming agreed to extending the current taxing levy for another ten years at the existing rate.

And just over a thousand votes were cast supporting the school district increasing the general education revenue by $70.00 per pupil for school activities and sports.

School officials say it will help lower students fees.
