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 fourth grade, an intermediate school (Hartselle Intermediate High School) for fifth and sixth graders, a junior high school (Hartselle Junior High School) and Hartselle High School (formerly Morgan County High School[2]) for ninth through twelfth grades. On April 1, 2013, the high school relocated to a new 50-acre campus at 1000 Bethel Road.[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 have designated Hartselle High, Crestline Elementary, F.E. Burleson Elementary and Barkley Bridge Elementary as Blue Ribbon Lighthouse Schools.[5] F.E. Burleson Elementary School was named a national Green Ribbon School by the United States Department of Education.[6] One hundred fifty-three geothermal wells at F.E. Burleson Elementary provide energy to heat and cool the school.[7]
