Hurley School District
The Hurley School District is a school district located in Kimball, Wisconsin,[1] serving the area around the city of Hurley in the northern portions of Iron County, Wisconsin.
The school district consists of a single school building, located on Range View Drive. Both Hurley Elementary and Hurley High operate on that site.[2]
History
The $7 million Hurley K-12 School was originally built in 1991 to combine the J.E. Murphy High School, South Side Elementary and St. Mary's Catholic School all in Hurley, and Roosevelt Elementary School in Montreal.
In August 2006, the district's five-member school board unanimously agreed that the school grounds should be annexed to the City of Hurley.
