| The Rudd-Rockford-Marble Rock Consolidated School District was |
| established in 1959 as part of the initial wave of school |
| consolidation in the state of Iowa. At that time, the school |
| consisted of four buildings in three communities. The high school was |
| located in Rockford on the current school site, and a separate |
| elementary was located near downtown. Both Rudd and Marble Rock |
| maintained their own elementary and junior high buildings. Class |
| sizes of nearly 100 students were common as the baby boom generation |
| moved through school in the 1970s and early 1980s. This configuration |
| was starkly altered in 1989 when the high school was destroyed in a |
| winter fire. That tragedy brought about unexpected benefits as it |
| prompted the district to construct a single site, K-12 school, which |
| started classes in the fall of 1992. By having a single physical |
| plant, the district created staffing efficiencies that allowed the |
| school to avoid confronting the painful decisions of many small |
| districts concerning closure of buildings and further consolidation |
| for the last twenty-three years. RRMR class sizes range between 25-35 |
| students per class. |

| RRMR has a proud tradition of educational excellence and prominent |
| graduates. Notable Rockford graduates include: Bridges of Madison |
| County author, Robert Waller, Saving Private Ryan actor, Jeremy |
| Davies, and highly decorated Navy SEAL, Jon Tumilson, who was part of |
| Seal Team 6 and lost his life when his helicopter crashed in |
| Afghanistan. His services were held in the school gym. The community, |
| staff, and student body of RRMR are very proud of its academic |
| excellence and the success of its students when they go out into the |
| world. |
