History
In 1945 (after World War II), the School Reorganization Act in Kansas caused the consolidation of thousands of rural school districts in Kansas.[https://books.google.com/books?id=TQ_RAAAAMAAJ&pg=1 Your School District: The Report of the National Commission on School District Reorganization; National Education Association; 286 pages; 1948.]
In 1963, the School Unification Act in Kansas caused the further consolidatation of thousands of tiny school districts into hundreds of larger Unified School Districts.{{cite web |title=Administration of Unified School Districts in Kansas |url=https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED037897.pdf |publisher=Kansas State Department of Public Instruction |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200710105315/https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED037897.pdf |archive-date=July 10, 2020 |date=January 1967 |url-status=live}}
USD 107 was formed in 2006 by the consolidation of White Rock USD 104 and Mankato USD 278.
In 2009, it had absorbed some territory from Jewell USD 279 due to that district's dissolution.{{cite web|url=https://www.cjonline.com/article/20110724/NEWS/307249967|title=School consolidations in Kansas for past decade|work=The Topeka Capital-Journal|date=2011-07-24|accessdate=2020-04-26}}
