Flathead and Area School Districts![]() School records can provide valuable resources for genealogists. Besides serving as documentation for when a family has relocated to an area, they often provide the names for parents and can even provide genealogists with missing birth dates. We are providing here a copy of a brief history of school districts that were once part of Flathead County. The histories were compiled by the Superintendent of Public Schools in Flathead County on July 1, 1973 and was updated in February 2008. Currently, the school censuses for districts located in Lake County have been placed online by FamilySearch. They are not indexed and we are including a link to the collection. Many of these censuses includes the parents or legal guardian names and the date of birth of the child. Children were recorded up to the age of 21, even if they were not enrolled in a school. Only families with school aged children were counted. Some school records are held by their successor school districts, while others have been transferred to the County Superintendent.
