Catasauqua Area School District is a school district spanning portions of two counties in the Lehigh Valley region of eastern Pennsylvania. In Lehigh County, it covers the boroughs of Catasauqua and Hanover Township. In Northampton County, it covers the borough of North Catasauqua.
The district operates Catasauqua High School in Northampton for grades nine through 12, Catasauqua Middle School in Catasauqua for grades five through eight, and Sheckler Elementary School in Catasauqua for kindergarten through fifth grade. As of the 2022–23 school year, the school district had a total enrollment of 1,455 students between all three of its schools, according to National Center for Education Statistics data.
In the early 2000s, Catasauqua built a new high school in Allen Township and remodeled the former high school, changing it into the Catasauqua Middle School. The old middle school, Lincoln Middle School, was purchased by Allentown developer Abraham Atiyeh at a cost of $900,000.
