Former school districts
Former school districts in Indiana include hundreds of school corporations, township schools, and city systems that have been abolished or consolidated since the mid-19th century. The most significant period of dissolution occurred between 1959 and 1968 following the passage of the School Reorganization Act of 1959, which sought to modernize education by merging smaller, often township-based districts into larger units with better funding and curriculum standards.
History and Legislation
In the early 20th century, Indiana's educational system was highly decentralized. Governance was largely the responsibility of township trustees, leading to a system of nearly 1,000 small districts, many of which operated only one-room schoolhouses.
