Back to School Bash
The Ozark Community is Coming Together to Support Our (PK-12) Students

At the Back to School Bash, Ozark students in need will receive free school supplies, backpacks, hygiene kits, and more—all thanks to the support of our caring community.
We're Hiring Bus Drivers!
We are hiring bus drivers and, effective Jan. 1, employees who are hired to work at least 25 hours per week will have health insurance available … that includes our bus drivers!
Bond Update
In spring 2023 we broke ground on three new storm shelters, thanks to voter approval of a $19 million no-tax-increase bond issue in April 2022. We held a ribbon cutting for the Ozark Middle School and Tiger Paw shelters in spring 2024, and for the Ozark High School shelter and Activities Center in fall 2024.
Safety & Security
Did you know we have six School Resource Officers who are fully commissioned with the Christian County Sheriff's Office? Combined, our school police has more than 120 years of public safety service. Safety of our students and staff are their top priority.
