A brick school was built in 1913 at a cost of $40,000. [7] By 1923, this school housed classes from grades 1 to 12, and all other schools in the immediate district closed. Montmorenci School met a similar fate in 1966, closing as part of a consolidation that moved the upper grades into the new Benton Central Jr./Sr. High School.
Even though Montmorenci is in Tippecanoe County, all public education is provided by the Benton Community School Corporation from neighboring Benton County. Students attend Otterbein Elementary in grades K-6, then move on to Benton Central Junior-Senior High School in grades 7-12.
