"If Waukee could break itself up into eight high schools, it would be its own Class 3A football district.".....that's insane.
Their free-and-reduced modifier would probably send the whole conference into 4A classification for football though.
Also, Tama County has the private/tribally controlled Meskwaki Settlement School.
I don't see a way that a private Christian school in Tama-Toledo won't directly and negatively impact South Tama public schools. Our enrollment dropped around 50 this past fall. They are anticipating serving a student base of around 100 when they open. And they'll be competing for school staff in an area that is having an increasingly difficult time recruiting staff. And our own state legislator is chairing the board for this private school endeavor.
