Final bell in Walnut

Students walked out the doors of the Pottawattamie County town of Walnut for the last time last week. Next year it will be part of a fully consolidated AHSTW.

(The population on the town sign mentioned in the story is from 1980.)

The city of Walnut will take possession of the school building and will tear part of it down.

What’s notable in the summer 2016 reduction of Iowa school districts is that all three — Farragut, Prescott, and Walnut — will be losing/have lost their buildings as well.
