EAGLE GROVE The Eagle Grove Community School District has been facing a unique problem that many central Iowa schools aren’t rapid increases in enrollment.
In fact, in the last three years, the district has welcomed 111 additional students, Superintendent Jess Toliver said.
To help alleviate some of the space constraint issues that increased enrollment brings, the district is currently working on a $1 million renovation project of the district administration building, which is located across the street from the high school.
“Our eighth grade class has about 90 kids and our freshman class has about 90 kids,” Toliver said. “Our senior class has about 50 kids.”
