    Grundy County school districts are not the only districts in this part of the state to see continued enrollment declines. A report compiled by The Grundy Register from Iowa Department of Education data shows the decline continues to hit North Iowa Cedar League schools as well.
    Certified enrollment at the 15 public NICL schools dropped 1.6 percent on the official count date of the 2014-15 school year from 11,671.8 a year ago to 11,489.6.
