Howard School District serves approximately 562 students. The school facilities in the district are very good. The Junior-Senior High School was completed in 1969 and is in excellent condition. It is a spacious, functional, and well designed facility. Eight bus routes serve our rural families with district owned buses.
Food service is available at both schools.
The certified staff of the Howard School District is stable with very little turnover in any one year. It is fair to describe the school and school environment as high quality and conservative. The economy of the Howard District is agriculturally based. The largest employers include PBM Packaging, the Good Samaritan Home and the School. Most of the basic needs and services are available in Howard and surrounding communities.
