The Fairland Local School District was formed in 1949 as a consolidation of Proctorville and Rome Rural schools. It serves the village of Proctorville, Rome Township, parts of Union and Windsor Township in Lawrence County, as well as parts of Crown City and Guyan Township in Gallia County . It consists of four schools; Fairland East Elementary (PreK-2), Fairland West Elementary (3-5), Fairland Middle (6-8), and Fairland High School (9-12). The Fairland Dragon is its mascot.
