History

Schools

• Oelwein High School
• Oelwein Middle School - In 2018 several areas changed function, with the turf-floored activity center with a climbing wall installed in the former swimming pool area, and the science laboratories and classrooms being installed in the northwest wing.
• Wings Park Elementary School - Circa 1998, it covered preschool through grade 5 and had about 400 students.
• Little Husky Learning Center

• Parkside Elementary - In 1998 it covered until fifth grade and had around 150 students. In 2018 it had 81 students and only covered the 1st grade. That year it closed, with students moved to Wings Park.
• Harlan Elementary – In 1998 it covered until fifth grade and had around 140 students. In 2010 it had 78 students and only covered the 2nd grade. That year, due to enrollment and budget declines, the Oelwein CSD board decided to close the school on a 6-1 basis, with Wings Park taking the 2nd grade. This allowed the district to spent $70,000 fewer annually.
• Oelwein Alternative School – 10th–12th Grade
