Wednesday, November 4th 2015
The Swanville School Distrct held a bond referendum election yesterday. The final vote was 484 votes-yes, 124 votes-no for a total of 608 total votes cast. With the passage of the referendum, Swanville Superintendant Gene Harthan says the school district hopes to use the approximately $120,000 per year that the bond will give the district to help it come out of standard operating debt and begin hiring back some teaching positions that had previously been cut. Another local district that held a bond referendum was the Long Prairie-Grey Eagle school district. Voters in that district narrowly approved that request on a vote of 420 yes to 399 no.
