Welcome to Our School

Welcome to the North Cedar Community School District, home of the Knights! We are grateful to have you visit our “online home” and hope you will find just what you are looking for here on our district website. Whether you are just passing through our community or have a child attending one of our schools, you can learn more about us, check for important dates and upcoming events on our calendar, or find out the news about what our students are up to. If you need additional information about our district or have questions for us, please feel free to contact us. We are here to serve you!

For those of you who are not familiar with our district, you can find us in the rural areas of east-central Iowa, along Highway 30. Our district office is located in Stanwood, and our school district also serves students in Clarence, Lowden and Mechanicsville. Our four communities work together to raise the bright and ambitious leaders of tomorrow.

We hope you will take the time to get to know our schools and our district. We have so much going on within our halls – from outstanding academics to technology initiatives to exciting sports programs to wonderful extracurricular activities – to help grow our students into productive participants in the 21st century.

A Message from Our Superintendent
