Students will attend Hughes for one more semester this fall and then move to Horizon in January. If there is enough interest, the busing will be provided by Harlow's Bus Service of Bismarck. Harlow's manager, Dale Lein, said at least 50 to 60 kids would be needed for the plan to work. The price could change depending on the number registered. Collins said parents will be contacted again this fall and asked to register if interested.
Nothing is cast in stone.
We can't finalize until we find out where the majority live. Hughes Middle School is located in the west-central part of town, along North Washington Street and West Avenue D, but the newly constructed Horizon Middle School is one mile north of Century Avenue, just west of North Washington Street.
