User submitted facts and corrections:
  • One last change of which I know (there may be others, but this I do know): The Greene Junior-Senior High School is now the North Butler Senior High School. The Greene Community School District is engaged in 'whole grade sharing' with the Allison-Bristow CSD to the south, and the Junior High is located in Allison. Both communities retain their elementary schools and the CSDs are NOT mergered (in fact, while Greene voted 80% in favor of merger, Allison-Bristow voted only about 56%, with 60% required.)
