History

The district was formerly in a North Dakota school construction loan program, but was pushed out by 2014 because it used all of the funds within a several month span that were intended for a two year period. Therefore the district was planning a school bond. The intended cost of the new school was at or below $14,900,000. The intended campus location, in the midpoint from the fairgrounds to the city limits, was to have a capacity of about 300.[6] The district wanted the bond to be for $14,500,000. In May 2014 voters rejected two measures related to the school bond, with 63% opposing an increase of the debt levy and 60% against the levying of a bond itself. There were 838 voters, which Bill Gion, the president of the Mott-Regent school board, called "great turnout", and he concluded "The patrons have spoken, (there's) more work to do."[7]

Athletics

The Mott/Regent Wildfire won the 2007 North Dakota High School Nine Man Football championship, defeating the Napoleon-Gackle-Streeter Imperials.[8]

In 2017 it started a cooperative American football team with the New England School District.[9]
