Fulton Schools is a public school district in Central Michigan. In Gratiot County, it serves Perrinton and parts of the townships of Fulton, Newark, New Haven, North Shade, and Washington.[4] In Clinton County, it serves Maple Rapids and parts of Essex and Lebanon townships.[5]
History
[edit]Middleton and Perrinton school districts merged in 1940 to form Fulton Schools, and Maple River's school district joined in 1958.[6] Before the current middle/high school's completion, high school was held at a brick school in Perrinton.[7]
The current middle/high school was dedicated on January 22, 1961.[8] Fulton Elementary, originally a middle school, opened around 1975.[9] The school in Perrinton closed in 1983, and its elementary students were moved to the middle school. Eighth grade was moved to the high school building.[10]
In 1993, the middle/high school was remodeled. A new media center, computer labs, and new lockers, paint, carpet, and lighting were added.[11]
Schools
[edit]Fulton schools share a campus at 8060 Ely Highway, south of Middleton in Fulton Township.[1]
