VOTERS APPROVE BOTH REFERENDUM QUESTIONS!

On Tuesday, April 9, 2024, voters in the Ulen-Hitterdal School District considered a two-question special election addressing facility and learning environment improvements.

Following the vote, the unofficial election results are:

Question 1 (GO Bonds for Roofing): 211 YES (65%) and 116 NO (35%)

Question 2 (GO Bonds for Security and Facility Improvements): 182 YES (56%) and 141 NO (44%)

District Superintendent Dustin Flaten expressed his gratitude to the community for their support:

“I extend my sincere appreciation to the entire community for taking the time to learn more about the needs of the district. The passing of these special election questions is an exciting vote of confidence in our collective vision for education at Ulen-Hitterdal School District.”

Flaten continued, “This community investment will provide a new school roof that will promote a healthier environment for students and staff. By incorporating safety standards such as ADA accessibility and improved security systems, we are ensuring a secure environment for our students, staff, and the entire community. We are deeply thankful for this invaluable support.”

In the coming weeks, the District will work with our project partner SitelogIQ to begin finalizing the details of the facility improvements. We will continue to communicate with our school community regarding these exciting developments.
