Westwood Community School District

What Westwood Community School District does

Westwood Community School District is a public K-12 school district organized as a government state entity under Iowa law, headquartered at 1000 Rebel Way, Sloan, Iowa. The district was founded in 1961 and operates with a headcount of 251–500 employees. It provides comprehensive K-12 educational services to resident students within its geographic boundaries, with a curriculum that includes standard academic programs alongside career and technical education tracks in Agricultural Business, Business/Commerce, Family and Consumer Sciences, and Drafting/Design Engineering Technologies. Athletic programs include state-level competition in girls golf and wrestling, and student support is anchored by dedicated high school counseling services.

The district's technology stack is a conventional public-school communications and operations bundle rather than a proprietary platform: Apptegy powers the district website (wcsdrebels.com) and mobile apps on iOS and Android; JMC provides the student information system for grades and schedules; HUDL TV broadcasts high school athletics; MySchoolMenus publishes dining menus; and GoBound hosts the district calendar. The district is SAFE+SOUND Iowa certified for school safety and wellness. Distribution is direct enrollment of resident students within district boundaries — there is no commercial sales motion, no tuition revenue from residents, and no external customer base. Funding flows from local property taxes, Iowa state aid, and federal education programs, with no disclosed financial figures in the source material. One management team member is named (Kelsey Schramm, Equity Coordinator); broader leadership (superintendent, board) is referenced but not detailed in the input.
