The Montezuma Community School District is a rural public school district that serves the town of Montezuma, Iowa, and surrounding areas in southern Poweshiek County, including much of Deep River.[2]
The school's mascot is the Braves. Their colors are blue and white.
In 1992, the Deep River–Millersburg Community School District (DR-M) closed its secondary school and established a whole grade-sharing program with both the Montezuma Community School District and the English Valleys Community School District. Secondary students from DR-M chose which school district they wished to attend for junior and senior high school.[3]
On July 1, 2009, the DR-M was consolidated into the English Valleys Community School District, although a portion of it was split to the Montezuma Community School District.[4]
The district operated three schools in one building at 504 N 4th Street in Montezuma.[1]
The Braves compete in the South Iowa Cedar League Conference in the following sports:[5]
