Guttenberg Community School District (GCSD) was a school district headquartered in Guttenberg, Iowa.
It operated a K-8 School and Guttenberg High School.[1]
History
In December 1999 the district and the Garnavillo Community School District agreed to begin whole-grade-sharing (in which students from one district attend another district's schools for a particular grade level) in 2001.[2] The district began sharing athletic teams with Garnavillo in 2000. The whole grade-sharing began as scheduled in 2001.[3] The districts combined their secondary schools, with the high school in Guttenberg and the middle school in Garnavillo. The two retained their respective elementary schools.[4]
On September 14, 2004, an election on merging the two districts into one was held, with Guttenberg district voters approving it 396–19, and Garnavillo district voters approving it 188–20.[5] The merger into the Clayton Ridge Community School District was effective July 1, 2005.[6]
