Tower-Soudan and Babbitt-Embarrass made decisions to join the County School system because it made sense at the time. Embarrass was part of the county system before Alvin B. Ness became Superintendent and didn't want to invest in the Embarrass school, chosing instead to herd students to Babbitt. The best solution to this mess would be for Babbitt, Ely, Tower-Soudan, Cook and Orr (and possibly International Falls) to form a new district. Each has similarities in that a community surrounds the school, the economies are similiar and the geographical proximities offer potentials for block scheduling thereby having teachers residing in the general community in which they teach and not having to bus kids all over the place.
