Marathon Central School District

Marathon Central School District is the public school system for Marathon, a village on the Tioughnioga River in Cortland County. It educates children from the village and the surrounding rural area, and the school is a central part of community life in town, from classrooms to ball games.

In a small district, teachers, students and families tend to know each other well, and school events draw the whole town. The district also gives young people in the countryside around Marathon a school close to home rather than a long bus ride to a larger city.
