Welcome to the Wapello Community School District. We hope that you find our website helpful as you try to learn more about our district. At Wapello, we are committed to providing our students with the education they will need to be successful in our ever-changing world. Through a challenging curriculum and a rich variety of extra- and co-curricular activities, Wapello students have the opportunity to develop their talents and their abilities.
My goal is to connect students, parents, staff, and community members so that we may all work together to ensure our schools are the best they can be and that our students are prepared to pursue their dreams.
As a superintendent, I am proud of what Wapello Community School District provides for our students. As a parent, I am grateful my children had the chance to be part of a school district that relentlessly promotes academic and social excellence.
I encourage you to explore our new website. We welcome any suggestions and comments you may have. Our website is one way of communicating with our patrons, and we are always looking for ways to improve.
A great school district depends on strong relationships and open communication with the community. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me at mike.peterson@wapellocsd.org or at 523-3641.
Wapello is a great school because of the great people, both in the school and in the communities we serve! Thanks for visiting!
