Greene Community School District


Greene Community School District was a school district headquartered in Greene, Iowa.
The district served sections of Butler and Floyd counties.
It began whole grade-sharing with the Allison-Bristow Community School District in 2004, leading to the creation of North Butler High School in Greene and North Butler Middle School in Allison. Leaderships of the two districts promoted a merger that would occur by 2006 as they hoped to obtain property tax incentives and weighted enrollment funds totaling $600,000. This election was scheduled for Tuesday October 11, 2005. The proposed merger failed as Aliston-Bristow voters defeated it on a 279-206 basis, with 57.53% rejecting the proposed merger. The Greene voters had approved it on a 352-62 basis.
The second vote on whether the districts would merge succeeded in 2010, with Greene voters approving it on a 607-25 basis and Allison-Bristow voters approving it on a 378-311 basis. It merged with Allison-Bristow CSD to form North Butler Community School District on July 1, 2011.
