The district formed in 1972 by the merger of the Desha Special School District and the Watson School District.[3]
In 2004, the Arkansas Legislature approved a law that forced school districts with fewer than 350 students to consolidate with other districts.[4] Both the McGehee and Delta school districts petitioned the Arkansas Board of Education, asking for an annexation of Delta into McGehee. The board approved the annexation on April 26, 2004.[5] On July 1, 2004, the Delta Special School District and the Arkansas City School District were merged into the McGehee district.[6]
