The district headquarters and Tioga High School are co-located while Central Elementary School is in a separate facility.[2]

Within Williams County it includes Tioga and McGregor.[3] Within Mountrail County it includes White Earth.[4] It also includes sections of Burke and Divide counties.[5][6]

Prior to the 2021 disestablishment of the New School District 8 (later the Williams County School District 8), some students from that district went to Tioga High School for high school.[7]

History

Circa 1990 the district sued a company over asbestos in the school buildings, and a jury determined the district should receive $75,000 to punish the company and an additional $756,906 to compensate the district.[8]

From circa 2008 to 2014, the number of elementary school students increased by over 150%, and in 2014 the district had 270 students. In January 2014 the district voters approved a bond measure, worth $9,900,000, with over 70% of voters approving.[9]

In 2014 the district's voters passed an election for a $9,900,000 bond.[10]
