K-12 Education

The McKenzie Special School District is made up of three schools, covering pre-K to 12th grade, dedicated to ensuring that all students receive the highest quality education possible. The parents in our community appreciate the benefits offered by our public schools, including a low district student-to-teacher ratio and high achievement levels across all grades, consistently ranking at or above the state average.
