History
In the late 1950s or early 1960s the Brayton school consolidated into the Exira district.[1]
In a period of several years before its end in 2014, the Exira district operated in a financial deficit.[1] At one point it entered into with the Elk Horn-Kimballton Community School District, in which students from one district attended school in another district.[2] On July 1, 2014 it consolidated with the Elk Horn-Kimballton district to form the Exira-EHK Community School District.[3] 628 people voted in favor and 82 voted against.[2]
