Teays Valley Local School District is a school district in Pickaway County, Ohio, United States. It services the communities of South Bloomfield, Ashville, Commercial Point, and Amanda; in addition, students from Circleville and Grove City attend.
History
Teays Valley was officially established in 1963 when Ashville-Harrison, Walnut Township, and Scioto Township High Schools combined. At that time, the student population was just 1,650. They named the school "Teays Valley" after the ancient Teays River that ran under present day Pickaway County. The school district is the largest in Pickaway County.
The district is featured in the Together Concepts video production "We Are Teays Valley". The video depicts a surprising number of achievements and innovations, as well as connections to American and world history.[1]
In 2007, the Teays Valley Educational Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization was founded to promote excellence within the district.
