The Greenwood
Community School district was created by order of
the Clark County School Committee on April 1, 1957.
At this time the Eaton Center, Benjamin, Blackberry,
Braun Settlement, Christopherson, Decker, Hemlock,
Rocky Run and Greenwood districts were
dissolved to form the new district. Soon after the
West Eaton and Willard districts petitioned to be
included in the new district and an order effecting
this annexation was issued by the Greenwood Board of
Education on June 19, 1957. The district was made
up of 11 school districts and part of another in the
Greenwood area. At one time this area contained 16
one-room rural and state graded schools, some of
which had joined with other districts earlier. In
addition to the schools mentioned above, many still
remember other schools in the area including the
Prosperity, Janesville Settlement, North Willard,
Kippenhan, North Mound, and Maple
Ridge schools. Greenwood board members at the
time the new district was formed were Norman
Reineking, director, Robert Stewart, clerk, and
Allen Wuethrich, treasurer.
