Hartselle City Schools is a school district, established in 1975, serving the student populations of Hartselle, Alabama, and portions of Morgan County, Alabama.

The district serves more than 3,100 students with three elementary schools (Barkley Bridge Elementary, Crestline Elementary, and F.E. Burleson Elementary) serving kindergarten through the fifth grade, a middle school (Hartselle Jr. High School) for sixth through eighth grades, and Hartselle High School for ninth through twelfth grades. On April 1, 2013, the high school relocated to a new 50-acre campus at 1000 Bethel Road. The junior high school houses seventh and eighth grades in the former high school building. Hartselle Intermediate School serves fifth and sixth grades in the former junior high.[3]

Barkley Bridge Elementary School was named a National Blue Ribbon School by the National Blue Ribbon Schools Program in 2011.[4] Blue Ribbon Schools of Excellence[5] have designated Hartselle High, Crestline Elementary, F.E. Burleson Elementary and Barkley Bridge Elementary as Blue Ribbon Lighthouse Schools.[6] F.E. Burleson Elementary School was named a national Green Ribbon School by the United States Department of Education[7] One hundred fifty-three geothermal wells at F.E. Burleson Elementary provide energy to heat and cool the school.[8]

Hartselle has won numerous state championships in athletics. The baseball program has won eight Alabama High School Athletic Association state championships, which is tied for No. 4 overall.[9] The softball program is the reigning 2014 Class 5A state champions[10] and is tied for fifth overall with four state championships.[11] Hartselle has also won four state championships in girls golf[12] with Arin Eddy winning two individual titles and Heather Nail winning one individual title.
