Our Mission

From preschool through graduation and far beyond, the Ames Community School District prepares students not just for the next grade level, but also for what comes beyond their K-12 experience. Ames offers the best of both worlds: large enough to provide tremendous opportunities, yet small enough for every student to find where they fit and thrive. Our robust academics, diverse activities, competitive athletics, fine arts, career and technical pathways, and enriching extracurriculars ensure each student is known, supported, and valued.
