Mary M. Knight School District, is located in Matlock, Mason County. The district was established in 1924. It has one secondary school and one elementary school and serves 194 students. Mary M. Knight School District believes that communication between parents, teachers, students and the administration is critical to maximize student success. Our area has high poverty and people seem to live in Matlock to escape the big city or towns. Many teachers live out of district because of limited housing, We must sell our district to new teachers with attractions like small class size, opportunities to be creative in the classroom, and one-to-one student involvement.

For Mary M. Knight, the profile of the teacher workforce by experience is similar to the state with the exception of novice teachers. Mary M. Knight has a smaller percentage of teachers with less than 5 years experience, but mobility is still most pronounced for those in their novice years.
