The PCM School District is located approximately twenty miles east of the Des Moines area. PCM is a combination of the Prairie City, Monroe, and Reasnor communities. With a student population of slightly over 1,000 students K-12, PCM falls into the 2A class for most activities--overall, a nice blend of big-city convenience, with small town luxuries and values.

There is currently an elementary school in Monroe and Prairie City, the middle school is located in Prairie City, and the high school in Monroe.
