NORTH DAKOTA ( KXNET ) — The latest members of the Superintendent’s Student Cabinet were announced on Monday.
Kirsten Baesler, the North Dakota School Superintendent, chose 25 kids who will offer their advice and suggestions for improving education.
The new members are in grades three through 12 during the 2024-2025 school year and represent public and private schools across the state.
“The Superintendent’s Student Cabinet is invaluable in helping me to keep in touch with what’s going on in our classrooms across the state,” said Baesler. “Students don’t hesitate to tell me what’s going well in our schools, and where they believe improvements can be made. They have influenced North Dakota’s public education policy in many ways, including anti0bullying legislation, early childhood experiences, mental health awareness, personalized learning, and encouraging greater availability of advanced academic instruction.”
