School Merger Is Sought in Hay Springs
Hay Springs school district seeks to save its high school by merging with 16 rural districts. Superintendent Edward Reiman warns the 84 mill levy is unbearable and a failure to reorganize would force a kindergarten through ninth grade setup. Current high school enrollment is 156, while partner districts levy up to 32 mills. If approved, the merged levy may run 30 to 35 mills. Meetings are under way and petitions will seek 60 percent voter approval to place the issue on a ballot.
