"Education is learning what you didn't even know you didn't know" -Boorstin
Over the past few years Minot has grown by leaps and bounds. The Woodside addition, in the southeast corner of Minot has become the hot new area to build. With houses ranging in price from $180,000 to $1,000,000 there are a wide variety of families making this their neighborhood. Yet in this neighborhood your kids may not all attend the same school, or even be allowed to.
The Woodside addition is not in the Minot Public School District, it is Nedrose School District. There are 49 lots that are annexed into MPS, their property taxes reflect this. There are 100 plus other lots are not on this annex pattern right now and the students are not allowed to attend MPS thru open enrollment. Open enrollment is the process that has allowed us send our children to any school in our district, but it is quickly coming to a hault.
A few years back when Washington School opened it had 214 students, as of today it has 469 students. As of now Washington, Jim Hill, and Ramstad, are no longer excepting open enrollment being they are filled to capacity.
When choosing a home, it is important you know all the facts. I believe that the MPS and Nedrose School District are both great educational options. We are lucky to live in an area that has such high standards in education. If you would like more information please contact me and I can send you additional provisions on this addition to our growing community!!
