History
East Mills Schools formed on July 1, 2011, from the merger of the Malvern Community School District and the Nishna Valley Community School District.[4] Voters in both districts approved the consolidation on a 6 to 1 basis in 2010; 19.2% of the registered voters in the districts, a total of 483 people, participated in that election.[5] The merger was done so the school system could keep classes and teachers.
In 2014, the district had a total of 494 students.[6]
It previously operated Chantry Elementary School in Malvern, but the district closed the school in 2014.[7]
