I saw that on the NDHSAA web site. Minot was always the largest when I was there but their town is not growing like Fargo. I doubt they will ever add a second high school. They have similar issues here in the Indy metro area where a few schools have grown to 3500-4000 students and the school districts are not considering splitting the schools! Enrollment for the top class stops at about 1700 students so they are half the size of the largest schools. I've explained to others that in ND the largest class ranges from 2000 to 300. When I was in school schools like Trinity and Ryan were in Class A but I understand they have dropped down.

Thanks for old home week!
