History
The school district was established in 1854.

Beginning in the 2015–2016 school year, the Webster City district entered into a whole grade sharing arrangement with the Northeast Hamilton Community School District in which the latter sent secondary students to Webster City. This was done to address an enrollment decrease in Northeast Hamilton. In 2018, the two districts decided to hold an election on whether they should merge. On Tuesday, April 3 the election was held, with 94% of the Northeast Hamilton voters and 99% of Webster City district voters favoring consolidation. On July 1, 2019, the Northeast Hamilton district merged into the Webster City district.

In 2015-16, it expanded with an 11 million dollar bond issue for the construction of the new competition gymnasium.
