Baxter Community School District
Baxter feels like it could be everyone’s hometown. The district is small enough that staff members know all the students and can differentiate educational experiences to meet the needs of each child. It is located close enough to the Des Moines metro that families can easily access the big city amenities and employment opportunities.
Baxter prides itself in the fact that almost 25% of its students open-enroll into the district. The businesses and organizations in Baxter work together to support the district and make the community a great place to live.
