Oktibbeha County School District

The Oktibbeha County School District was a public school district serving rural communities in Oktibbeha County, Mississippi (USA). The district administrative offices were in Starkville.[1] It is now a part of the Starkville-Oktibbeha Consolidated School District, effective July 1, 2015.[2]

The district served most of Maben and the town of Sturgis in the West Oktibbeha County Elementary (Pre-K-6) and High Schools (7-12) as well as several communities in the western parts of the county not in the Starkville City School District. The East Oktibbeha County Elementary (K-6) and High Schools (7-12) served the communities in the eastern parts of Oktibbeha county not included in the Starkville City School District.[3] In 2013, the Mississippi Legislature passed a bill requiring that all Oktibbeha County schools be merged into the Starkville School District.[4]
