Hartselle High School is a fully accredited 9th through 12th grade facility located in the heart of the Tennessee Valley in Morgan County. The 2009-2010 school year will be the twenty-ninth year that Hartselle has been a high school within the Hartselle City School System. Prior to that our school was known as Morgan County High School. This year, we are serving 960 students with approximately 80 teachers and staff. Hartselle High offers a full range of opportunities academically, athletically, and socially. We have extensive advanced placement courses giving students the opportunity to do college-level work and earn college credit hours while still in high school. The school also provides an exceptional performing arts department allowing students to participate in voice, musical instruments, visual arts, and drama. We also have a career technical program that is fully business and industry certified that prepares students for technical college programs and careers in business, technical, and industrial fields. The strongest testimony to the success of our students lies in the fact that the vast majority pursue a post-secondary education. Our graduates are well prepared to succeed in college and future careers. Secondary only to our strong academic curriculum are the opportunities afforded our students athletically. Our female students compete with other high schools in basketball, volleyball, softball, track, tennis, soccer, golf, swimming, diving, dance team, and cheerleading. Our male students compete in football, basketball, baseball, soccer, golf, wrestling, tennis, track, swimming, and diving. Hartselle High has a long tradition of excellence on the playing field -- winning numerous state championships in our thirty years including baseball and women's golfin 2009. Most importantly, our students are taught to win or lose with dignity and pride in themselves and their school. The opportunities provided for our students to grow socially come from a wide array of activities and clubs which are available to all who wish to participate. Service and social clubs actively promote community involvement and volunteerism in our students. Events such as homecoming, the junior-senior prom, and many others allow our faculty and students to work together outside of the classroom. Needless to say, many of the best and most memorable lessons in life come from these social interactions. If you have already chosen to locate in our community, we welcome you and look forward to our work together. If you are visiting our area, on behalf of the students, faculty, and staff of the Hartselle High School family, we would like to extend to you an open invitation to visit our campus at any time. Should you be moving to our area with teenage children, you will find in Hartselle High School an atmosphere open and receptive to new students with great pride in our school and its students. We look forward to having you in the Hartselle family.
