School Votes



Undated (KICD)--Two school elections were held Tuesday in the area.  Voters in each case approved the question on the ballots.

     Spirit Lake patrons approved a physical plant and equipment levy for a three year period  816 to 638.   A simple majority was needed to pass.   Money raised from the 56 cent per thousand dollar valuation will be used to provide laptop computers for every student in grades 5 through 12.

      Voters in the South Clay district approved the dissolution plan of their district.   92 percent voted yes on the measure with only 8 percent against the idea.  The assets, territory and liabilities will be split up among several surrounding districts.

       Results of both elections are considered unofficial until canvassed by boards of supervisors.
