A school district is a unit of local government created by the state to carry out a specific purpose, usually the operation of the schools within its territory, generally governed by a board possessing those powers expressly granted to it by the state. Before the formation of the states of North and South Dakota in 1889, the Dakota Territorial Council performed this role. The collection consists primarily of the minutes of Grand Forks School Board meetings beginning with its inception under the Territorial Council on March 17, 1881. The minutes are entered chronologically in bound volumes. Included are loose annual reports, treasurer's reports, and other communications to the Board from citizens and other agencies. Entries are generally handwritten but those after 1885 are sometimes typewritten and pasted into the volumes.
