Welcome to the Cornell School District!

Cornell is very proud of their school system and the accomplishments that have been made academically for students and financially for the taxpayers of the district.  Budgets have been balanced while maintaining quality programming and the building infrastructure.  There are excellent employees, working in the district, that take pride in their work and the community.  The community has been generous in their support of the schools and this strong commitment is greatly appreciated.  Please feel free to visit our schools at any time and consider joining us in our educational endeavors.
