Aplington-Parkersburg Community School District
Aplington-Parkersburg Community School District is a school district in Iowa. Occupying portions of Butler and Grundy counties, it serves the towns of Aplington and Parkersburg.History
The district formed on July 1, 2004 with the merger of the Aplington Community School District and the Parkersburg Community School District. The predecessor districts had started sharing grades and activities in 1992. Enrollment declines contributed to the grade-sharing and the merger; the two districts together had 947 students in 1992 and 886 students in 2001; in 2003 the enrollment projection for 2006 was 762 students. The State of Iowa had already paid money to the pre-merger districts in exchange for having their grade-sharing, and it promised $500,000 for a successful merger.
Rob Hughes was scheduled to begin his role as superintendent of both A-P CSD and of Grundy Center Community School District effective July 1, 2019.Schools
