Pike Road Schools is a school district headquartered in unincorporated Montgomery County, Alabama.[1] It serves the community of Pike Road.[2]
Montgomery Public Schools gave approval to the separation of the Pike Road district in 2013.[3]
The Pike Road district began educational operations in 2015, with a K-8 school. It was to add one year per grade level.[4] As a result, the overall student body in the Montgomery district had a higher percentage of African Americans as non-African Americans had left the district.[5]
In 2017 the Montgomery district agreed to sell Georgia Washington Middle School to the Pike Road district.[6] The building was sold so the Pike Road district could quickly acquire space to build a senior high.[7] In 2018 the contract of sale was signed.[8] It became Pike Road High School.[9]
