School Board Meeting March 24, 2026

The Fargo School Board held a regular meeting on March 24, 2026, which included presentations from student musicians and various updates from board members and the superintendent. A key procurement-related action was the board's unanimous approval to open contract negotiations with Superintendent Dr. Steiner, who requested a salary freeze for the second year of his contract. An ad hoc committee was appointed to negotiate and propose a new contract by the May 12th board meeting. The meeting also covered budget update sessions scheduled for late March and early April, partnership efforts with the Career Innovation Center, and ongoing work on the district's Portrait of a Graduate initiative. No other procurement or contract awards were discussed during this meeting.
