History

In 1910 the board of education aimed to spend $5,000 in a tax levy. [2]

In 1964 students from Colgate began attending school in Hope and Page after the Colgate school closed. [3]

Beginning circa 1987 the Hope and Page school districts made cooperative sports teams. Beginning circa 1999 the two districts began doing a "trial merger" where on a temporary basis students from the respective districts attended each others' schools. In 2005 Hope officials signaled a willingness to permanently consolidate while Page officials had hesitancy since the Hope district hoped to have an athletic partnership in girls' basketball with Finley-Sharon School District, something that the Page district was not in favor of as the market for girls' basketball players would be crowded. That year a board member of the Hope district, Trevor Jacobsen, stated to the Page officials "We've been dating for 18 years. It's time we get married." [4]

The Hope and Page school districts formally consolidated in the 2020-2021 school year. [5]
