Three school properties up for sale

The Minot School Board agreed to market three properties at its meeting Tuesday, Nov. 10. The former Jefferson school in southeast Minot will go on the auction block, while the board will be advertising for sealed bids on a residential lot near Magic City Campus and development property south of Erik Ramstad Middle School. The board approved a listing agreement with Northern Auction that runs through February 2027 or until a sale closes. The Jefferson auction is proposed for Jan. 13 and any sale potentially could be approved at the board’s Jan. 14 meeting. Two open houses are planned and private viewings will be available for prospective buyers. The building was built in 1959. An early childhood education center operated for a number of years in the building after the elementary school closed in 2004. Most recently, the vacant building has served as a storage facility.
