Lineville–Clio Community School District

Lineville–Clio Community School District was a school district headquartered in Lineville, Iowa, United States. It served Lineville and Clio.
Its schools included Lineville Elementary School and Lineville High School.

History

The district originated from a school built in Lineville in 1850. The ACL district, which had schools in Allerton and Lineville, formed with the consolidation of Clio, Lineville, and Allerton school districts, occurring between 1962 and 1966. Allerton de-merged from ACL and merged into the Wayne Community School District in 1967. The name was changed from ACL to Lineville–Clio on July 1, 1987.
In 1995, the district had 115 students, making it the school district in the state with the lowest enrollment, and sixteen faculty members who worked full time.
The final elementary school building of the district opened in 2004.
The district decided to wind down in 2010, with students moved to Wayne Community School District and/or Mormon Trail Community School District. Lineville Elementary was not closed at that time. The Lineville–Clio merger with Wayne was effective July 1, 2011.
