Delaplaine High School
Delaplaine High School was a middle school and senior high school in Delaplaine, Arkansas. It was initially controlled by the Delaplaine School District, which merged into the Greene County Tech School District on July 1, 2004.[1] After the consolidation it was operated by the GCT school district and served students from the former Delaplaine School District boundary.[2] The school, along with Delaplaine Elementary, closed in 2007. Delaplaine mayor Larry Myrick stated that the community lost children with families after the school stopped operations.[3] Now all areas of the school district are assigned to Greene County Tech High School in Paragould.
