Education It is within the South Central Calhoun Community School District. It was a part of the Lohrville Community School District until July 1, 1993, when it merged into the Southern Cal Community School District. The Southern Cal district merged into South Central Calhoun on July 1, 2014. In 2012 the Southern Cal district closed the elementary school in Lohrville. The district board failed to find a suitable private buyer, the Lohrville community did not have enough funds to maintain the school, and there were already community and library buildings present. There were fears that if demolition were done later, it would cost more, and that if a business acquired the lot, the building would be demolished anyway. In September 2013 the school district decided that the building should be demolished. In February 2014 the district took the bid of a demolition contractor to raze Lohrville School; it was to be demolished by July 2014. References Cities in Calhoun County, Iowa Cities in Iowa
