The Millard Public Schools is a school district in the southwest part of Omaha, Nebraska. The first school in Millard was established in the fall of 1870. The school district is named for Ezra Millard (1833-1886) who platted Millard, a mostly uninhabited prairie 12 miles southwest of the city. The former city of Millard was annexed by the City of Omaha in 1971 after a lengthy legal battle. Today the Millard School District has diverse programs such as Nebraska’s only K-12 International Baccalaureate program, offered at Millard North High school, Millard North Middle School and Aldrich Elementary. The district also offers the Core Academy and Montessori, as well as many other programs.
