You're Invited: Mike Essick Field Ribbon Cutting March 24
In April 2022, Ozark voters approved a $19 million no-tax increase bond issue to construct three storm shelters and an indoor activities building at the high school. In fall 2024, those projects were completed as promised. The district not only was able to accommodate growth, but remained under budget. The remaining $5 million is supporting capital improvement projects around the district and on March 24, we're celebrating the latest project, the new baseball field!
Informed Voting: Senate Bill 3
On April 7, 2026, voters in Christian County will consider a ballot measure related to limiting property taxes known as "Senate Bill 3". The public entities funded through property taxes, such as Ozark and Nixa fire districts, schools, senior services, CC Links, and other essential community services, want voters to understand the potential impact of this measure before casting their ballot.

Ozark East Named Gold Star School
The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education named Ozark East Elementary School one of eight Missouri Gold Star Schools for 2025.
Help us congratulate our East staff and students for this tremendous achievement!
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.
Snow Day Procedures
In case Ozark School District needs to cancel school, use late start procedures or early release procedures due to inclement weather, we want you to be informed of the process. Student and faculty safety is the primary concern in making the call for cancelation versus late start or early release.
