History
Beginning in the 2015–2016 school year the district entered into a whole grade sharing arrangement with the Webster City Community School District in which it sent secondary students to Webster City.[4] This was done to address an enrollment decrease in Northeast Hamilton. In 2018 the two districts decided to hold an election on whether they should merge.[5] On Tuesday, April 3 the election was held, with 94% of the Northeast Hamilton voters and 99% of Webster City district voters favoring consolidation.[6] On July 1, 2019, the Northeast Hamilton district merged into the Webster City district.[7]
