Welcome to Oskaloosa Schools! We are delighted for your interest in the opportunity to join our staff in our mission of Engaging All Students to Embrace the Power of Learning. Our passionate team is #AllIn on our mission to engage in bold strategies of reaching and improving our world—one student at a time. 
Oskaloosa Schools enjoy incredibly strong community support. Our more than 2,000 students are served in state-of-the-art, air-conditioned facilities, which were recently updated in a $14 million construction project thanks to overwhelming citizen support for a local option sales tax.

Elementary students receive the benefits of learning in one comprehensive facility serving K-5 grade students. Oskaloosa Middle School (grades 6-8) and Oskaloosa High School (grades 9-12) are located on a single campus. They are split by George Daily Auditorium, a 695-seat facility for student and community use. Eight professional off-Broadway productions, the Oskaloosa Schools Performing & Fine Arts programs, and a year-round children’s theater program are all supported by this venue, which averages over 200 annual events.

Oskaloosa Schools is a leader in offering big-city options in a small-town environment. Even with elementary class sizes averaging 18:1 and secondary classes averaging 16:1, we pride ourselves on delivering a range of innovative and flexible learning choices for students. These include robust career and technical readiness classes through Indian Hills Community College, Home School Assistance, and an accredited Virtual Academy. College readiness is highlighted through our Advanced Placement coursework and unique partnerships with William Penn University.

We are also proud to offer a free 4-year-old preschool program to prepare our youngest students for academia in a new, state-of-the-art Early Childhood Education Center, connected to a recreation center constructed by the City of Oskaloosa in 2021. Oskaloosa Schools remains a leader in education in Iowa and is quickly becoming the school district of choice for our outstanding options and small class sizes. See for yourself what makes Oskaloosa an incredible place to work, live, and thrive!
