Mill Creek Community School Corporation

The formation of the Mill Creek Community School Corporation is the result of the 1964 consolidation of Clay, Franklin, and Liberty Township schools.

Until that time, there was a friendly but heated rivalry that existed among the Amo, Clayton, and Stilesville High Schools.

The consolidation of the township schools located in Amo, Belleville, Cartersburg, Clayton, Coatsville, Hazelwood, and Stilesville produced a higher quality education system, but also resulted in a loss of the history that was a significant part of the former schools and their associated towns.

When first consolidated, elementary schools in Amo, Clayton, Hazelwood, and Stilesville were organized.

Cascade High School (incorporating the first letters of all three communities, Clayton, Amo, and Stilesville in the name) was also opened at that time.
