History

It was established on July 1, 2011 from the merger of the Manning Community School District and the IKM Community School District.[4] The merger vote, held on Tuesday April 6, 2010, was in favor of consolidation: the vote tallies were 477–20 at the Manning polling station, 206–26 at the Irwin polling station, and 190–20 at the Manilla polling station.[5]

The district was previously headquartered in Manilla.[6]

Schools

The district operates two schools: IKM-Manning Elementary School in Irwin, and IKM-Manning Middle and High.[7]

The Manning campus, which once had both elementary and high school grades, at one time had about 550 students.[2]

The district previously operated a middle school in Manilla but it closed in 2014; at the time the district continued to have its headquarters there.[8]
