History

Then-superintendent Russell Huey had a planned retirement date of July 1, 1975. Charles A. Lane, who was the principal of the high school, was scheduled to replace him.[4]

In 1989 the district leadership agreed that the district should become a part of Illinois Central College.[5]

Bradford High School closed on July 1, 2001,[6] and was scheduled to become the Jr. High.[7] As of 2001 the high school students have their choice of attending one of three high schools: Stark County High School, Henry-Senachwine High School, or Bureau Valley High School.[6]
