Minford Local School District

What Minford Local School District does

Minford Local School District is a public K-12 school district organized in 1923 (originally as the Minford Rural District) and operating under Ohio state law as a government state entity. The district serves students in south-central Ohio, specifically in Minford in Scioto County, and is one of nine school districts in the county. It is governed by an elected Board of Education with oversight from the Ohio Department of Education, and is funded through state of Ohio education funding, local property taxes, and federal grants including Title I, Title II, Title IV, IDEA Part B, and the Rural Education Achievement Program (REAP). The district does not have a private parent company and is not subject to commercial acquisition or investment.

The district operates three school buildings on its Bond Road campus: Minford High School (grades 9-12), Minford Middle School (grades 4-8), and Minford Elementary (grades K-3). Educational services include core academics, 15+ athletic programs, band, choir, special education, college preparation with ACT testing and College Credit Plus dual enrollment (through partnerships with Shawnee State University and University of Findlay), career-technical pathways via Scioto County Career Technical Center, and a district-wide Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) meal program providing free breakfast and lunch to all PK-12 students. The Marching Band received Reserve Grand Champion and 2nd Place Overall recognition in the 2024-2025 season.

The district's technology stack is entirely built on third-party educational platforms: Google Workspace for Education (Classroom, Drive), eSchoolView (website platform), ProgressBook (gradebook), Renaissance Place (Accelerated Reader, Star Math), INFOhio (state-funded resources), ParentSquare (family communication), Clever (SSO), Study Island, BrainPOP, iCurio, and ClickN Kids. The district does not offer a proprietary software product, API, or mobile application. Its digital presence consists of an informational website, Facebook pages, an athletic Twitter/X account, and a YouTube channel for student-produced Minford Media broadcasts. Customer segments are K-12 students, families and parents, and high school students seeking college preparation; there are no commercial customers or revenue-generating products beyond publicly funded educational services.
