The sum includes $30.1 million that was distributed to schools in April; another $30 million endorsed by North Dakota lawmakers in September; and Wednesday\u2019s approval of another $33.8 million in school assistance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe $94 million provided to schools by the state provides much-needed money for our teachers, and into the classrooms, where it can do the most good,\u201d Baesler said.<\/p>\n<p>Schools also may use the last two aid packages on a much broader range of needs, Baesler said. Originally, the $30 million September aid infusion could be spent only on school staffing expenses, such as salaries for increased custodial and public health needs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis money, and the flexibility in using it that the Legislature has provided, is especially welcome to our North Dakota schools,\u201d Baesler said.<\/p>\n<p>Baesler said the funds may be used to offer mental health counseling for students and staff; professional development for pandemic-related issues; to upgrade technology infrastructure, which is needed to improve schools\u2019 ability to offer distance learning; and to improve school ventilation systems to help prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The money still may be used for personnel costs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI met with several local school administrators, and they indicated that technology and mental health supports were the most important priorities,\u201d Baesler said. \u201cThere has been higher-than-expected demand on streaming, hardware capacity, bandwidth, and distance learning curriculum. The ability to provide meaningful distance learning is crucial to our students\u2019 education.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Each North Dakota public school district, regardless of size, will get at least $30,000 from the new $33.8 million aid package. Each district will also get about $251 per student. Under this formula, the Bismarck school district, for example, will get $3.42 million; Fargo, $2.91 million; West Fargo, $2.89 million; Minot, $1.96 million; and Grand Forks, $1.94 million.<\/p>\n<p>In the area:<\/p>\n<p>Jamestown $581,655<br \/>\nValley City $304,705<br \/>\nCarrington $159,458<br \/>\nOakes $156,698<br \/>\nNew Rockford-Sheyenne $108,533<br \/>\nMedina $71,658<br \/>\nLaMoure $101,509<br \/>\nKulm $61,623<br \/>\nLitchville-Marion $60,871<br \/>\nPingree-Buchanan $65,135<br \/>\nEdgeley $88,465<\/p>\n<p>The North Dakota Legislature\u2019s Budget Section on Wednesday approved a request to allow the state Department of Public Instruction to allocate the $33.8 million to schools, and to provide added spending flexibility for the $63.8 million sum. The Budget Section is an interim committee that includes Republican and Democratic legislative leaders, and members of the state House and Senate appropriations committees.<\/p>\n<p>The money comes from federal emergency pandemic aid that Congress approved in March. Some of that assistance was first allocated to other North Dakota agencies.<\/p>\n<p>Valley City\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 Barnes Rural Water users on Wednesday were\u00a0 asked to limit water usage until further notice, as crews work to repair a water line break located under a Barnes County rural slough,located near Urbana\u00a0 affecting the cities of Dazey, Urbana and Wimbledon.<\/p>\n<p>Barnes Rural Water Manager Perry Kapaun said the work entails contractors building a dike so the repair can be made as soon as possible.<\/p>\n<p>No time estimate when this water line break repair would be completed.<\/p>\n<p>Casselton\u00a0 (<a href=\"https:\/\/kfgo.com\/2020\/10\/28\/202708\/\">KFGO<\/a>) \u2013 A close call for a driver who fell asleep at the wheel on his way to work and crashed west of Fargo.<\/p>\n<p>The SUV swerved off I-94 near the Embden exit and landed in a water-filled slough.<\/p>\n<p>A state trooper responded about 6:30 this morning to a report of a person walking along the interstate and located the man who explained he had crashed.

PAUL, Minn. (AP) \u2014 An environmental group is asking Minnesota utility regulators to investigate Enbridge\u2019s additions to its existing oil pipeline capacity which could make the company\u2019s controversial new $2.6 billion pipeline unnecessary. A filing by the Indigenous organization Honor the Earth with the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission says Enbridge made no mention of its capacity additions during hearings for the pipeline, a replacement for the aging Line 3, which runs from Alberta, Canada, to Enbridge\u2019s terminal in Superior, Wisconsin. Tuesday\u2019s PUC filing is the latest salvo in a six-year battle over the new pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In sports\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Soccer<\/p>\n<p>Jamestown\u00a0 (UJ)\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jimmiepride.com\/roster\/21\/14\/9437\">Claire Struble<\/a> (JR\/Murrieta, Calif.) of the University of Jamestown is this week&#8217;s GPAC\/Hauff Mid-America Sports Women&#8217;s Soccer Offensive Player-of-the-Week.
