East Greene Community School District was a school district headquartered in Grand Junction, Iowa.[1] It served the communities of Grand Junction, Dana, and Rippey.[2]
The Grand Junction and Dana school districts consolidated in 1959 to form the East Greene district.[3] Rippey joined the district in 1963.[4]
In 2001 the district had 500 students.[5] This was down to 386 students in 2004,[2] and this further declined to 320 in 2013.[5]
In 2012 the district began a grade-sharing arrangement with the Jefferson–Scranton Community School District in which the Grand Junction school became an elementary school, while secondary students began attending Greene County Middle School and Greene County High School in Jefferson.[6] The East Greene district consolidated with the Jefferson–Scranton district into the Greene County Community School District on July 1, 2014.[7]
The Rippey School served as the East Greene district's elementary school, while middle and high school students attended school in Grand Junction.[2] In 2012 the Grand Junction building became an elementary school (as East Greene Elementary School and Greene County Intermediate School) while secondary students went to school in Jefferson.[6]
