Rockwell City-Lytton Community School District


Rockwell City-Lytton Community School District was a school district headquartered in Rockwell City, Iowa.
In addition to Rockwell City it served Lytton and Jolley.

History

The district formed on July 1, 1993 from the merger of the Rockwell City Community School District and the Lytton Community School District.
In 1998 the district had 612 students; this declined by 24% to 467 in 2011.
In 2009 the Rockwell-Lytton district and the Southern Cal Community School District decided to begin sharing athletic programs in the 2010–2011 school year and begin whole grade sharing, in which districts sent students to each other's schools, in the 2012–2013 school year. By 2011-2013 grades 5-12 were shared, and in 2012-2013 all grade levels became shared. On Tuesday February 5, 2013 the districts held an election on whether they would consolidate. The vote to consolidate was successful, with a 253-67 count in Rockwell City-Lytton and 340–86 in Southern Calhoun; a total of 746 people voted. On July 1, 2014 the two districts merged to form the South Central Calhoun Community School District.
