LaMoure Public Schools

Last updated

LaMoure Public School District 8 or LaMoure Public School is a school district and associated school in LaMoure, North Dakota.

Most of the district is in LaMoure County, where it includes LaMoure, Berlin, and Verona. [1] Portions of the district extend into Dickey County, [2] and a small portion lies in Ransom County. [3]

Circa 1952 the composition of the school district changed. Advocacy to create a new elementary school began by 1952, and a new one was scheduled to open in 1956. In 1955 its territory had 140 square miles (360 km2) of area. [4]

In 1968 the North Dakota Education Association (NDEA) investigated an argument between the board of trustees and the teachers over how much money the teachers should be getting. [5]

In 1971, the NDEA criticized the board of education and the district administration in a letter of reprimand, which argued that teacher retention was too low and which stated that, in the words of the Associated Press, there was a "poor attitude" in the board of trustees. [6]
