Calamus–Wheatland High School is a rural public, four-year high school located in Wheatland, Iowa. The school is part of the Calamus–Wheatland Community School District.

Located approximately one mile north of U.S. Highway 30 in Wheatland,[1] Calamus–Wheatland High School draws students from several communities in western and southwestern Clinton County, including Calamus, Wheatland and Toronto; the district also includes a small portion of northwestern Scott County, drawing students from the unincorporated community of Big Rock and rural areas north and west of Dixon.[2]

Calamus–Wheatland came into being in 1990, the result of a merger of the former Calamus and Wheatland school districts.[3] Toronto had earlier been a separate school district, and was incorporated into Wheatland sometime in the early 1960s.
