Only one school board meeting was held in January 1916. Action was apparently on hold regarding the new high school building. The school board continued to meet to conduct business of the newly consolidated school district.

There was only one motion during the meeting: William Krause’s bid of $60 per month for hauling the children from former District 87 (Minnetrista) was carried and accepted. Bills were paid for custodial work, report cards and other supplies and for the driving of the school wagon.
