The district was established on July 1, 2001, by the merger of the Dexfield Community School District and the Stuart-Menlo Community School District.[4] The two districts prevoiously had a grade-sharing arrangement in which students from one district attended the other district's schools for certain grade levels.[5] In 2003 the district had 950 students.[6]
From 2002 to 2004, several votes for bonds to finance a new high school were voted down. All four major communities opposed the first, and in the second, of the four communities, only those in Stuart had a majority for supporting the bond. In 2004, the district board attempted to expel Redfield as that community's residents voted against school bonds each time.[6]
