About
The Ainsworth School was originally built in 1922. In 1949, what is now the Ag Shop was added. In 1954 the Lila McAndrew Elementary and gymnasium were added. In 1965, an Annex Building was moved onto the grounds and is now the Superintendent's Office. The Learning Center was added in 1975. In 2000, the new cafeteria, loft and renovations were completed with the passing of a bond in 1998. In the summer of 2018, the old Ag Shop was torn down and replaced by a much larger and more adequate facility. This new facility opened to students in January 2019.
Ainsworth takes in students from Ainsworth Middle School and McAndrew Elementary School.
