Lead Hill School District is a public school district in Boone County, Arkansas, United States which serves the cities of Diamond City, Lead Hill and South Lead Hill along with surrounding unincorporated areas within Boone County.[2]
Due to the district's small size, it was in danger of being forcibly consolidated into another district, as consolidation is normally mandated for districts with enrollments each below 350 for two consecutive school years. The district had 338 students and 344 students in the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 school years. In 2019 the Arkansas Department of Education granted the district a waiver that allowed it to remain independent.[3]
