Des Moines Register reports Corwith-Wesley in northern Iowa held its last class Friday as the district nears closure. About 400 attended a final Memorial Day weekend gathering in the gym. The district plans a possible demolition with a $400000 to $500000 budget, while others propose reuse such as a fire station or community center. Hawkeye Pride Egg Farms eyes buying the building for $1 to convert a 1955 wing into a bioscurity facility.
