Hibbing Board explores options to fund high school roof repair

HIBBING—There are portions of the Hibbing High School roof that are leaking and are in critical need of repair, and the school board is considering options to fund the repairs. Through a 2025 Legislative change a levy option is now allowable for schools to access funds through the levy process to complete roof projects over $100,000 per site, District Business Manager Lance Takkunen explained. The School Board took up the matter as a discussion item this past week, and is anticipated to discuss the costs and levy impact for taxpayers at its next two meetings, according to Takkunen. “Our historical approach has been to do section by section roof repairs and use our LTFM (long-term facility maintenance) capital funds to fund those projects,” Superintendent Carrie McDonald explained during a discussion on the matter at the school board meeting Wednesday. “Our current challenge that we face is that the high cost is consuming a substantial amount of our capital and leaving fewer dollars for other facility needs each year.” Going from a proactive to reactive approach for roof repair An option is to do “a strategic shift” where the district would evaluate a new bonding authority to try to solve its

Grand Rapids overpowers Hermantown for section title, Returns to Class 4A State Football Tournament for second consecutive year

Section 7AAAA Championship Grand Rapids 38, Hermantown 7 DULUTH — Logan McNear was 5-of-7 for 134 yards through the air, including a touchdown pass and two touchdown runs, and Ethan Morgan carried the ball six times for 131 yards and two rushing touchdowns as Grand Rapids drove past Hermantown 38-7 to capture the Section 7AAAA Championship for the second season in a row. Last season the Thunderhawks defeated the Hawks to earn their berth in the state tournament, and did so again Friday with authority at Duluth Denfeld’s Marv Heikkinen Field. A fast start put them up 17-0 in the first quarter after a Fynn Schlicht field goal, onside kick, and rushing touchdowns from McNear and Morgan. McNear was also sharp throwing the ball, while Morgan split the backfield carries with Mason Johnson, who got a heavy dose of runs early in the game to set a hard-nosed, physical tone for Grand Rapids. They’d go up 24-0 heading into halftime after McNear found Gunnar Anderson deep down the seam of the defense and in the end zone with a pinpoint throw and fantastic catch - one of two catches for 92 yards in the game for Anderson. Hermantown opened the
