History

The district has been a K-12 system since 1931 as Palmyra School District, and in 1971, reorganized with the Eagle State Graded School District, which detached from the Mukwonago Union High School District. It has been known officially as Palmyra-Eagle Area School District since 1974. In 1987 a new elementary school in Eagle was built. In 2005 the middle school was moved from Palmyra Elementary School to Palmyra-Eagle High School. Today the district is served by a shared high school and middle school building in Palmyra and one elementary building in Eagle. On July 1, 2019, the school board of the Palmyra-Eagle School District voted to dissolve the district. The district cited a lack of funding necessary to continue operations past the 2019–2020 school year. The school board voted in April 2020 to keep the district open.
