Recent history[]
North Tama County joined the Iowa Star in 2003, leaving the North Iowa Cedar League.[2]
Former member CAL last had their own high school in the 2017–18 school year. After many years of co-oping with Dows High School and competing as CAL–Dows, Dows left the agreement and partnered with Clarion–Goldfield for the 2014–15 school year. CAL school district still supports grades K–6, with grades 7–12 attending Hampton–Dumont.[3]
Members Baxter and Collins–Maxwell formerly partnered in sports, which Baxter ended that agreement to compete on their own in 2016. Both schools joined the conference separately in 2017.[4]
