Diagonal Comm School District

Located at 403 W 2nd Street in Diagonal, Iowa, the Diagonal Community School District serves as a vital educational anchor for its surrounding rural remote community. Operating as a fully active, traditional public school district overseeing two operational facilities, Diagonal provides a comprehensive educational pathway spanning from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. With a focused student body of 110 learners, the district offers an exceptionally close-knit environment where students navigate their early childhood, elementary, middle, and high school years within a cohesive, supportive academic framework.

To support its student population, the district maintains a robust professional team featuring nearly 25 full-time equivalent teachers, four instructional aides, and roughly 40 dedicated support staff members, bringing the total district staff to over 68 full-time equivalent positions. This remarkable staff-to-student ratio allows for highly individualized instruction, strong faculty-student mentorship, and holistic administrative support rarely found in larger municipal systems. For families, prospective students, and researchers looking to explore the district further, additional resource information is available via their official portal at diagonal.k12.ia.us or by contacting the main office at (641) 734-5331.
