Schools

All schools are in Sibley.

  • Sibley-Ocheyedan High School (grades 7-12) - As of 2020 it had about 40 employees and 350 students.[5]
  • Sibley-Ocheyedan Middle School (grades 5-8)[6]
  • Sibley-Ocheyedan Elementary School (K-4)[7]

It previously operated two separate elementary schools: Ben Franklin Elementary School and Ocheyedan Elementary School.[8] The district closed the latter school in 2009.[9] A reduction in the number of students was the reason for the closure. By 2014, the district was trying to find another use for the building.[10]
