From the Pelican Rapids School Board:

We recognize the fact that these are very challenging times. We acknowledge the failed levy has put us in a very difficult situation. We want you to know that in these hard times our dedication to our school has not wavered.
• We have a great school and we will keep it open
• We will continue to provide a quality education to our kids
• We will spend down our limited fund balance to help maintain our programs
• We will run another levy in the next 12 months
• We are counting on our residents to support the up coming levy
• With all of us working together we will be successful
