The Providence Independent Schools district was scheduled to merge into the Webster County district in July 2007. Providence school authorities approached the Webster County authorities and proposed a merger due to various problems in their district; the Webster district authorities agreed, even though they initially were not sure if their schools had enough space for extra students and had concerns about possible declines in academic performance and financial capabilities, because the Kentucky Department of Education funded the construction of new county school buildings.^[3]
