GMG Community School District

GMG Community School District is a rural public school district headquartered in Green Mountain, Iowa.

The district is in Tama and Marshall counties, and it also serves Garwin and the surrounding rural areas.

History

The district was established in 1987, by the merger of the Garwin and Green Mountain school districts.

Schools

The district operates two schools:

  • GMG Elementary School, Green Mountain
  • GMG Secondary School, Garwin

Operations

The district entered into an agreement with multiple school districts to share employees; districts may share employees as a way of saving money. For example the GMG and BCLUW school districts share a superintendent, with the occupant working for BCLUW 60% of the time and GMG 40% of the time. Ben Petty, previously the principal of BCLUW High School, became the shared superintendent of GMG and BCLUW in 2011. By 2014, the GMG, BCLUW, and Hubbard–Radcliffe districts shared a single elementary guidance counselor, the GMG, BCLUW, North Tama, and Gladbrook–Reinbeck districts shared a single director of curriculum and innovation, and GMG and BCLUW had a single transportation director.

The district was previously headquartered in Garwin.
