Norris School District was established in 1880, when farmer, Robert Norris, donated land to the Norris School District in Northwest Bakersfield.[2] The school district has grown in size since then, but its philosophies are much the same. There are currently four elementary schools: Norris Elementary, Olive Drive Elementary, William B. Bimat Elementary, and Veterans Elementary (opened in fall 2007).[3] There is only one middle school, Norris Middle School, but the district has plans to build two new elementaries and one new middle school within the next ten years, depending on housing growth in the area.
In the 90s Norris School District received a Golden Bell Award for their library program.
