Deer/Mount Judea School District
# Deer/Mount Judea School District

Deer/Mount Judea School District is a public school district in Newton County, Arkansas, United States.

The school district formed on July 1, 2004, resulting from consolidation of two former school districts based in Deer (Deer School District) and Mount Judea. The district has about 400 square miles (1,000 $km^2)$ of space.

Circa 2006 the district received $509,000 in extra state funding due to the rural isolation in the district.

A 2010 report by the University of Arkansas Office for Educational Policy stated that the district had the possibility of its enrollment going below 350 students within five years. This could have possibly forced another consolidation.
