Dear Shenandoah Family and Friends,

The school year is coming to an end shortly.  I imagine your kids want a break from the schedule and routine. In a few short weeks, they may shift their thinking and want things to do or may start to use that dreadful phrase, “I am bored.”  

Each summer, the District provides summer adventures or interest camps for elementary and middle school students. Mr. Burdorf sent you information about this a few weeks ago over email. We do not want you to miss out on this opportunity, so the sign-up timeline has been extended.

Here is some additional information about the camps.

There is NO CHARGE for these opportunities. The camps are FREE, and your kids can eat breakfast and lunch for NO CHARGE.

Dr. Nelson

Congratulations to our Mustangs and Coaches!!! 

Andrew Christensen was hired as the new High School principal effective July 1, 2022. Mr. Christensen and his family will be joining us from Fort Calhoun, Nebraska where he serves as the Athletic Director and Assistant High School Principal. He graduated from Dana College and earned his Master's Degree in Educational Administration from the University of Nebraska at Kearney. It is a bit of a bonus that he hails from Neola, Iowa, and attended Tri-Center Community School District. He has a strong focus on forming staff and students relationships, connectivity, communication, and understands the need to focus on continual improvement. 

You can read more about Andrew Christensen on KMA's website here.

Welcome to Shenandoah Community School District! The District is proud to offer a comprehensive student-centered program in academics, fine arts, and athletics. In addition to our standard program, the IGNITE program allows for students to attend our schools online or as hybrid learners. This option allows our students to maximize their learning and work-based learning opportunities while attending classes online.   

The District serves more than 1100 students in grades PK-12 on a beautiful centralized campus located in Shenandoah, Iowa. In addition to the city of Shenandoah, the District serves students from Farragut, Imogene, and Northboro and students who are open enrolled from other communities outside of the district boundaries.  

 
Many exciting things are happening in our District. We invite you to get involved with our schools and partner with us to provide an exceptional learning environment for all of our students.
