It's the week all you parents have been waiting for! BACK TO SCHOOL! We ease into the events this week with just a couple, here is a look at our calendar of events for the first week of school!


There has been a mistake with the discount cards that the Wapello Indians Football Team has sold over the past few weeks. The coupon for Sal Vitale's Pizza indicates that it is good for a Free order of Cheese Sticks. This should have read 'Free order of Small Cheese Sticks.' We regret the error and apologize to everyone who purchased the cards.

🎨 Welcome to Wapello!
Please join us in giving a warm welcome to Ms. Madison Keller, who is joining the Wapello Community School District!
Ms. Keller began her journey in education at Muscatine Community College, where she earned her associate's degree, and then transferred to the University of Northern Iowa. She graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Art Education and a minor in Art History.
When she’s not in the classroom, Madison enjoys line dancing, shopping at Target, and spending time with her kitty, Emmy. She also loves iced coffee, chicken Alfredo, and a good bag of Cool Ranch Doritos!
We’re thrilled to have her creativity and passion for teaching on our team. 💛💙
