History

The area was settled as a German colony, approximately five miles east of Elkader. In April 1856, the land was surveyed by Lewis Brockman, who established the location as the "southeast quarter of section 8, township 93 north, range 3 west."[1] Clayton Center was then platted on June 27, 1857, by Fred Hartmann.[2] Clayton Center's population was 94 in 1902.[3]

Education

Public schools are operated by the Clayton Ridge Community School District, which formed in 2005 with the merger of the Guttenberg and Garnavillo Community School Districts.[4] Students were previously zoned to Garnavillo schools.[5]
