The Bemidji School District board held a special session meeting Monday night to discuss the construction timeline and the estimated cost of the new Gene Dillon Elementary school they want finished by September 2017.

Construction managers that have been working with the district on the project were there to consult with them.

Ultimately, they reached a decision that an appraisal of three other possible sites for the school must be done before they meet again in special session on August 24.
