The Clayton Ridge Community School District is located in beautiful northeast Iowa. It extends from the banks of the Mississippi River through some of the most scenic towns, farmland, and woodlands of the United States. This district was formed from the merger of two traditional rivals, Garnavillo School District and Guttenberg School District. These two districts began sharing athletics in 2000-2001, and whole grade sharing started the following year. The two districts officially merged in 2005, and the process was considered to be very successful.
Pre-school through fifth-grade classes are held at the North campus in Garnavillo, sixth through twelfth grades are at the South campus in Guttenberg.
