160.020 Composition of independent school districts. All school districts embracing cities of the first five (5) classes together with the territory <br>within their limits, including any territory added for school purposes outside of the city <br>limits, and all independent graded common school districts having a school census <br>enumeration of two hundred (200) or more children, constitute independent school <br>districts, except those which have merged with a county school district since June 14, <br>1934. No independent district other than a city of the first five (5) classes shall continue <br>to operate when its school census enumeration of children falls below two hundred (200) <br>pupils unless it appears to the Kentucky Board of Education that the district can maintain <br>a more efficient program of school service by operating as an independent district.
