Welcome to Prairie!
The College Community School District's programs are located on an 800 acre site on the SW side of Cedar Rapids. The central campus site is unique for a district our size and source of great pride. The Prairie campus consists of five elementary schools (K-4), an intermediate school (5-6), middle school (7-9), high school (10-12), Early Childhood Center, and three off‑site programs. The College Community School District serves 5,800 students from Linn, Benton, and Johnson counties.

In addition, the support of our community through the passing of a bond referendum has allowed us to expand and remodel our current buildings, build a new 5/6 building which opened in the fall of 2023, and our new 9th Grade Center and Delta site that opened in the fall of 2024.
The College Community School District's vision of "Success for All" is the foundation of the District's personalized learning system.

A combination of targeted instruction, data-driven decisions, flexible content and tools, and student reflection and ownership ensures that each student receives what they need when they need it.
