Fairmount Public School District 18[3] is a public school district headquartered in Fairmount, North Dakota.

[5] In 1965, the district held a bond election for building a facility for elementary school.

[6] In 2002, the district stated that it lost $161,050 due to the Richland County government not giving the district the updated tax valuation information from the government of North Dakota in relation to the 2001-2002 school year.

The district, with three others, hired a lawyer to settle the dispute.

Around that month, due to conflicts between the superintendent and the board of trustees, the latter chose someone to do an arbitration process.
