This document is a three and five-year plan for the Selfridge Public School District #8, outlining the district's approach to addressing demographic impacts on academic and extracurricular programs, staffing, facilities, and tax levies. The plan includes data on enrollment trends, student assessment results (North Dakota State Assessments, NAEP, ACT/WorkKeys), curriculum offerings, student services, financial data, staffing levels, and facility planning. It also addresses student interventions and remediation, student success indicators (graduation rates, college enrollment), and future financial challenges. The plan aims to ensure the district has the necessary resources and staffing to meet the needs of its students and community over the next three to five years.

The Selfridge Public School District #8's three and five-year plan focuses on four strategic initiatives: Academic Engagement, Professional Learning and Development, School Culture and Climate, and Resource Management and Planning. Academic engagement aims to create an engaging learning environment using North Dakota State Standards and 21st-century skills, implementing a Multi-Tiered Support System (MTSS). Professional development focuses on targeted activities and the Danielson Evaluation Framework. School culture and climate prioritize safety, positive relationships, community collaboration, and extracurricular participation. Resource management focuses on long-range facilities and technology planning, and financial planning. The plan includes detailed data on enrollment trends, student assessment results (ND State Assessments, NAEP, ACT/WorkKeys), curricular offerings, student services, financial data, and staffing. A significant project involves constructing a new elementary school and remodeling the high school.
