Solen Public School District 3 is a school district headquartered in Solen, North Dakota.[1]

It operates Cannon Ball Elementary School (K-8) in Cannon Ball and Solen High School in Solen.

Within Sioux County it serves Solen and almost all of Cannon Ball.[2] The district also extends into Morton County.[3]

History

In July 2013 Justin Fryer was named the superintendent of the district.[4]

In 2018 the Cannon Ball elementary building had a lack of insulation and bug infestation issues. That year the school district received a $5 million federal grant to rebuild the school.[5]

In 2019 the State Auditor of North Dakota took over an audit that a private company was doing of the district to check if embezzlement has occurred.[6] The state believed that $38,000 was stolen from the district.[7]
