In 1989, the Arapaho district's enrollment was 320. By 1989, the administration of the Arapaho district and other area districts began talks about having a single common high school due to financial issues occurring in the three districts.

In 2008, the Butler Public Schools was seeking a merger with the Arapaho district. That year, the Butler district merged into the Arapaho school district, with the merged district to have a new common identity. The State of Oklahoma's lottery funds were used to encourage a voluntary merger, and the merged district received $360,000. The Arapaho district received the property of the Butler district.
