Hartford School District (Arkansas)

Hartford School District 94 was a school district in Sebastian County, Arkansas. The district included Hartford and Midland.[1] It operated Hartford High School.

The district ceased to exist on July 1, 2015, when it was annexed into Hackett School District.[2] The merger was voluntary and approved by the Arkansas Board of Education. Arkansas law usually mandates a merger if the number of students in a school district consistently is below 350, which happened to the Hartford district.[3]

In 2021, the former school district property was auctioned off.[4]
