District History

edit

In 1960, Sugarcreek, Shanesville, Baltic, Ragersville and Dundee consolidated to create the Garaway Local School District. The merge was a part of the state's plan to combine small school districts. The name of the district was created by combining parts of the names of each district township (Sugar, Auburn and Wayne).

In 1990 the high school added a new gymnasium, locker rooms and several classrooms.

Prior to 1991 grades 6-8 were held in the Baltic Elementary building. Today, grades 7-8 are held jointly in the high school building and grade 6 was re-incorporated into each of the four elementary schools.
