Message from the State SuperintendentThank you for visiting the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction’s website. I am grateful for this opportunity to share some of my thoughts about North Dakota’s K-12 education system with you. The future growth of our great state is tied inextricably to economic development. Economic development is dependent on a highly educated and skilled workforce, able to think critically, innovate, be technologically literate, and productive. Our students, to be successful, must be nurtured by family and supported by their community. They must learn to be good citizens in a global environment. Major educational initiatives that show great promise in this environment of continuous declining enrollment, include our developing Regional Education Associations and enhanced distance learning technology. Both clearly offer the potential of consistent, reliable student support services in a number of areas. We need to further develop and fund them so that all North Dakota students have access to a full range of services. I invite you - students, parents, and all facets of our North Dakota community – to join me in a pledge to offer all students the resources necessary for them to reach their full potential. Together we can face North Dakota’s educational issues and concerns, respond to challenges, and look for solutions that promise a first-class education that is competitive on an international basis.
