History
[edit]It was formed on July 1, 2012, by the merger of the Fremont Community School District and the Eddyville–Blakesburg Community School District.[5] On September 13, 2011, the merger was approved in a referendum, with the Eddyville–Blakesburg district voters doing so on a 335–86 basis and the Fremont voters doing so on a 91–60 basis.[6] As part of the merger plans, the pre-merger E-B and Fremont boards were to, for a period, continue to meet while a newly selected combined Eddyville–Blakesburg–Fremont board was to already begin business.[7]
