The former high school closed, and the elementary and district headquarters were in Milton.^[2] In November 2003 voters in the Van Buren and Fox Valley districts approved a consolidation. The combined school board was to begin meeting in December 2003 and consolidation was to be effective July 1, 2004.^[3]
