South Page Community School District, or South Page Schools, is a small, rural, public school district headquartered in College Springs, Iowa.

It is entirely in Page County, and includes College Springs, Blanchard, Braddyville, Coin, and Shambaugh.[2]

History

It was formed in 1959 by combining the Braddyville, Coin, Amity (College Springs), and Blanchard consolidated districts which included Shambaugh. Although the elementary and grades 7–12 are housed in College Springs, at one time there were two elementary schools located in Braddyville and Coin.[citation needed] The high school has always been located in College Springs. The 1960 K–12 enrollment was approximately 600 but enrollment has plummeted to less than 200 students. Although some of the sharp decline is due to an open enrollment policy in Iowa, the great majority is due to population shift in rural areas as a result of smaller families, larger farms and lack of economic opportunity.

Schools

The district operates two schools on one campus in College Springs:

South Page High School

Athletics

The Rebels competed in the Corner Conference until the end of the 2018-19 school year.

South Page now co-ops sports with Bedford as the "Bedford Bulldogs". They compete in the following sports:
