Fargo Schools Hit Balanced Budget

Fargo Public Schools just pulled off a major financial turnaround, securing a balanced preliminary budget for 2026-2027 with a $200 million general fund — a huge leap from last year’s deficit fears. After slashing nearly $5 million in cuts and adjusting salaries and health costs, they’re keeping property taxes flat while banking on steady enrollment and rising home values. Final numbers, including grants, will be locked in at the school board meeting on September 22 — a hard-won victory after months of tough decisions.
