Picture this, 225 square miles of rural Indiana land just thirty minutes North West of the state capital, Indianapolis . This area in Boone County makes up the Western Boone County Community School Corporation and is primarily farmland. In this vast area, one can find only two blinking stoplights; one in the small town of Jamestown and the other at the intersection of two state highways. However, there are two main interstates running though the district; Interstate 65 and 74. There are two small towns ( Jamestown and Thorntown) that still hold the local hardware store, library, bank, grocery store and doctor's office. Jamestown still has a working railroad that transports passengers on Amtrak and Thorntown's railroad is now part of the original railroad that has become a community walking and biking path. Even though this is a large area, the total student population is just over 1,900 students. Many patrons enjoy this area in Indiana because of the small population, rural atmosphere but easy access to Indianapolis. Read More ...
