The Dry Creek Joint Elementary School District began in 1876, with only a few students in a schoolhouse.
[citation needed] It is now among the fastest growing school districts in the State of California.
[citation needed] The District has constructed new elementary schools in the past four years.[when?]
It is anticipated that the District will continue to grow for the next 10 years, serving approximately 8,500 K-8 students.
