NETT LAKE SCHOOL, ISD 707
REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR A 7-12 SCHOOL AT NETT LAKE, MN
The Nett Lake School Board is accepting proposals for the preparation of a feasibility study for a grade 7-12 public school in Nett Lake, Minnesota.
Background
The Nett Lake School Board currently operates a K-6 elementary school in the Village of Nett Lake, MN. This school has an enrollment of approximately 80 children, nearly all of whom are Native American. Beginning in grade 7 these students attend the Orr School located in Orr, MN which is operated by the St. Louis County School District 2142. Orr is located approximately 20 miles east of Nett Lake. In 2009, the St. Louis County School District 2142 Board approved a re-organization plan that will close the Orr School and the Cook, MN School, and replace them with a new K-12 school to be built approximately 4 miles north of Cook. That new school will be located approximately 35 miles from Nett Lake. The 2010-2011 school year is expected to be the last year of operation of the Orr School.
The Nett Lake Reservation has a population of approximately 500 people. The Community of Orr has a population of approximately 250. The Orr School also currently serves the Buyck-Crane Lake area. Since the announcement of the closing of the Orr School, there has been a substantial amount of community interest in the possibility of developing a 7-12 school at Nett Lake to serve the population of the Nett Lake Reservation, Orr, Buyck, Crane Lake, Gheen, Greaney and surrounding areas.
Required Scope of Work
