History

Previously it had a grade-sharing program with the Dows Community School District, with each district having its own elementary school, Dows operating the middle school, and CAL operating the high school.[4] Circa 2004, the CAL district had 241 students.[5] In the 2016–2017 school year the district had 261 students.[6]

As a way to lower costs, the district was scheduled to begin sharing a superintendent with the Hampton-Dumont Community School District in 2016.[7] The school board of Hampton-Dumont CSD approved the arrangement, effective July 1 that year.[8] In 2018, the district entered into a whole grade-sharing agreement with Hampton-Dumont, sending its secondary students there.[9]
