History

The district has been a K-12 system since 1931 as Palmyra School District, and in 1971, reorganized with the Eagle State Graded School District, which detached from the Mukwonago Union High School District. It has been known officially as Palmyra-Eagle Area School District since 1974. In 1987 a new elementary school in Eagle was built. In 2005 the middle school was moved from Palmyra Elementary School to Palmyra-Eagle High School. Today the district is served by a high school/middle school and two elementary buildings.

On July 1, 2019, the school board of the Palmyra-Eagle School District voted to dissolve the district. The district cited a lack of funding necessary to continue operations past the 2019–2020 school year. Whether the district will be allowed to dissolve will be determined by the School District Boundary Appeal Board by January 15, 2020. [3]
