History

Greg Wieman was the superintendent beginning circa 2014 and ending in 2016. The board of trustees chose not to retain him as superintendent. [3]

Some time prior to 2017, the district began using a four-day per week schedule. [4]

In 2017 its enrollment was below 250. Most students, after completing senior high school, go to the military and/or to post-secondary education. According to superintendent Dan Wold, "everybody knows each other -- most are somehow related" due to the small population. [4]

In November 2022 there were 63 people working for the district, and the district had 330 students. [3]

Operations

The funding of the district comes from taxation from businesses that run mining operations. [4]
