History
In 1992, the Deep River–Millersburg Community School District (DR-M) closed its secondary school and established a whole grade-sharing program with both the Montezuma Community School District and the English Valleys Community School District. Secondary students from DR-M chose which school district they wished to attend for junior and senior high school.
On July 1, 2009, the DR-M was consolidated into the English Valleys Community School District, although a portion of it was split to the Montezuma Community School District.
