One of the first school districts in the county was set up in this area as the Mill School District No. 2. In 1856, the village of Manitowoc was incorporated resulting in several joint school districts between the town and the village. Before the village was incorporated, there were school districts numbers 1-2-3-4. Two Rivers school district number joint 5 was organized in 1861, and Manitowoc district number 6 (now Jt. 6) in 1862. Manitowoc joint 7, consisting of an area west of Tenth Street to the west city limits was set up in 1865. Today only Manitowoc school districts joint 1 (now Manitowoc city), Manitowoc joint 3, and Manitowoc joint 6 remain. School districts numbers joint 1, 2, joint 4, and joint 7 were incorporated into the Manitowoc city school system in 1910.
