Killdeer Public School

Regular School Board Meeting Agenda for April 8, 2026

Good evening. The Killdeer Public School District has been approved for a four-day school week by the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction. The 4-day schedule will go into effect for the 26-27 school year. The process of submitting an application worthy of approval was a lot of work. Having said that, now the real work begins. Our commitment to delivering high quality instruction continues. The NDDPI has made it clear that our performance must continue to be at the highest level. We are committed to doing the best we can for all of our students and families. More information will become available and will be sent to our stakeholders. We wanted to formally send this preliminary information out to the community so you know it is not a rumor. Thank you, Jeff Simmons Killdeer Superintendent ND DPI Aproval Letter

FFA Career Day

Sophia Sadowsky was chosen to represent her workshop peers to speak at the Close Up farewell banquet in Washington D.C. We are very proud of her and all our students as they represented Killdeer with integrity and true kindness. We are truly blessed to have the students we have in Killdeer, and our trips to DC remind just how blessed we are. A big thank you to the parents who allow their kids to join us on this trip!

Great opportunity!

A group of eighth grade students are connecting with a school in Kansas to learn more about their school and state. They are also sharing all the great things happening in Killdeer and at KPS.

Killdeer Elementary held their Cowboy Pride Assembly. A special safety patrol member was recognized, Adria Fenstermaker. Courage was our character focus this month so we honored those that demonstrated courage and handed out some Reflex math certificates. Mr Binstock’s class had the best attendance and archery also received some recognition for making it to nationals. Congratulations to Mrs Pennington who won the teacher bracket in March Music Madness. The students loved the big reveal of the inflatable mystery readers to wrap up literacy month. It was a big day filled with literacy activities and fun.

Save the date!
