Iron and Virginia schools are also moving in the direction of more sharing and the seeds of administrative consolidation. Note that they are also inviting Eveleth-Gilbert to the table as well. This group of schools has the potential of creating a strong district in a nest of closely packed classic Iron Range towns.
I took a stand on the issue of Iron Range schools and weakening K-12 curriculum in my most recent newspaper column, which has spurred a most interesting and frenzied comments thread.
