Minnesota – (KFGO) — Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton Public Schools has been handed a close loss. Voters rejected an increase in the general education revenue by $500 per student by a vote of 619-652 in the unofficial tabulation. That means 51.3% of voters said “no” and the measure failed by 33 votes. Without the added revenue, the district says they will face further reductions to teachers, increasing class sizes, cuts to electives and CTE programs, and difficulty maintaining buildings.
Alternatively, Breckenridge voters overwhelmingly approved a $58 million plan to modernize & consolidate the city’s public schools as which includes $600,000 capital projects levy to maintain programs, technology, buses and curriculum. Unofficial results from Tuesday’s election show 774 yes votes (70%) to 330 no votes (30%), signaling strong community support for the long-discussed project.
Moorhead, which has two sperate funding questions on the ballot, does not have visible reported results on the secretary of states website as of late today night.
