We were honored to welcome ND State Superintendent Levi Bachmeier to Richland #44 Jr/Sr High School today!

Superintendent Bachmeier started his visit by meeting with our school administration, followed by a stop in our senior Economics class where he shared insight into North Dakota’s school system, his role as state superintendent, and took time to answer questions from our students.

He also visited additional classrooms, including Mrs. Roth’s English 10 class and Mr. Boehm’s Botany/Horticulture class, giving him a chance to see learning in action across multiple subject areas. The visit wrapped up with a tour of our facilities and a roundtable discussion with administration and school board members.

Thank you, Superintendent Bachmeier, for taking the time to visit our school and connect with our students and staff. We also commend your goal of visiting all 167 schools across North Dakota—what an incredible commitment to education across our state!
