History

By 2010 the student population of the Weiner district had fallen below 350, which required the district to be merged into another district under Arkansas law. That year the Weiner district and the Delight School District, another school district under the 350 student limit, attempted a voluntary merger, but the Arkansas Board of Education declined on the grounds of the two districts being too far apart; the distance was 14 miles (23 km).[2] Delight instead ultimately merged with the Murfreesboro School District to form the South Pike County School District.[3]

On July 1, 2010, the Weiner district consolidated into the Harrisburg School District.[4]
