The Marvell–Elaine School District #22[2] (MESD) previously Marvell School District No. 22,[3] is a school district headquartered in Marvell, Arkansas. It serves Marvell, Elaine, and other areas in Phillips and Desha counties.[4]
In 2008–2009 the school district had a total of 595 square miles (1,540 km2) of land.[6]
Under a previous law, circa 2023, the district had the possibility of a mandatory consolidation due to a smaller demographic figure. By 2023 the Arkansas LEARNS Act allowed for smaller school districts to continue operations.[7]
