Governor
Hoeven's Education Initiatives
"Education is the bedrock on
which we build the future. Excellence in education
will enable us to achieve our greatest potential, as
individuals and as a state. Schools produce the
human wealth on which our progress depends."
"As we continue to transform our
economy, we need to provide our young people with
the resources necessary to receive more career and
technical education. That will provide them with the
skills and knowledge they will need to fill the jobs
of the future in our growing and diversified
economy."
Governor John Hoeven
