History

In 1969 the State of Arkansas enacted the Quality Education Act, which was to require schools to merge into others that attained a classification of "A" by 1979. This and other factors resulted in the Bruno and Pyatt schools consolidating. [4] Groundbreaking for the consolidated school occurred in 1973. [5] The Bruno-Pyatt School was created in 1974 as a consolidation of schools in Bruno and Pyatt. [6] The school opened in September that year. [1]

On July 1, 2004, the school district consolidated with the St. Joe School District and the Western Grove School District into the Ozark Mountain School District. [7]
