West Fargo School District serves the City of West Fargo, much of southwestern Fargo, the suburb of Reile's Acres, and the communities of Horace and Harwood. Seven West Fargo residents are elected to serve on The School Board, these residents govern the School District and serve 4-year terms.[61]

Dr. David Flowers, the current Superintendent, was hired in 2010.[62] Dr. Flowers was named the North Dakota Superintendent of the Year by the North Dakota Association of School Administrators in 2012.[63] Holly Ripley, an assistant principal at West Fargo High School, was named the 2016 National Assistant Principal of the Year.[64]

History

The West Fargo School District (then referred to as “School District No. 6 in Cass County”) was formed on October 9, 1876. In January 1887, Nina Hall was hired to teach two month. She was paid $40. “This first school was large enough to handle the pupils of the district until 1910 when it became necessary to build the Fairview School in the western part of the district. The two schools continued to operate until 1923.”[65] In 1922, North School[66] was built, which included two classrooms and a gymnasium.[65] The following year, Jennie Worman Colby became the first principal.[67] In 1939, a new school building was built for grades 7-12. Today the building, The Clayton A. Lodoen Community Center, houses the West Fargo Community High,[68] Clayton A. Lodoen Kindergarten Center,[69] and West Fargo Public Library.[65][70]

Growth

The City of West Fargo's growth has caused the building of new schools to meet the needs of its students: Aurora Elementary School (located in the Eagle Run development in southern West Fargo) opened for the 2007-2008 school year and Sheyenne 9th Grade Center opened August 27, 2007 as a response to the district's growing enrollment and overcrowding at West Fargo High School (2007 marks the first year the freshmen have been educated outside the High School since 1993). The Sheyenne 9th Grade Center may serve as a second middle school for West Fargo, as it was decided in March 2009 to be voted on by the public. In January 2015, Superintendent David Flowers presented a 10-year RSP Associates demographics study which “predicts the district will continue to add between 400 and more than 600 students each year”.[71][72]

Schools

The school district operates two early childhood schools (Clayton A. Lodoen Kindergarten Center and Osgood Kindergarten Center), ten elementary schools (Aurora Elementary, Eastwood Elementary, Freedom Elementary, Harwood Elementary, Horace Elementary, Independence Elementary, L.E. Berger Elementary, Liberty 5th Grade, South Elementary, and Westside Elementary), two middle schools (Cheney Middle and Liberty Middle), and three high schools (West Fargo High School, Sheyenne High, and Community High).[73]
