sartell high school

The Sartell - St. Stephen School District's new high school is starting to take shape as the walls are starting to rise on the site.

A junior at Sartell High School has put himself into some elite company by earning the highest score possible on the ACT.

After years of planning, the new Sartell High School officially got underway Monday night. The 290,000 square foot building is set to be opened in the Fall of 2019.

What started out as a book club at Sartell High School has morphed into an effort to raise awareness about sex trafficking. StAT, or Students Against Trafficking started after the club read a novel about an American family who dealt with sex trafficking.

The Sartell City Council has approved the preliminary and final plat of the property where the new Sartell High School will be built.

The Sartell City Council and Sartell School Board held a joint meeting Monday to get a look at some options for improving Pinecone Road out to the site of the new high school.

Four Sartell High School students are competing for the title of "Mr. Sartell" by raising money for charity. Each student taking part is raising money for the Make A Wish Foundation.

The Sartell-Stephen school district is hosting several community forums for its upcoming $105.8 million referendum on May 24th. Attendees will hear from superintendent Jeff Schwiebert, school board members and administration about the components of the facility plan and how referendum money will be spent.

A bond referendum for Sartell facility updates, including the building of a new high school, could be held as early as May. The district has two possible timelines for a vote, May 31st, or the general election in November. Superintendent Jeff Schwiebert says the district is hoping to select a plan next month.

The Sartell school board meeting on Wednesday night involving a presentation on a possible new high school is being rescheduled. A community task force is expected to pitch a plan to the board involving a new high school and updates to every other building in the district.
