Christian County Public Schools is the public school system of Christian County, Kentucky, United States. After many of the high schools in the area were consolidated in 1959, the city and county schools were consolidated with the formation of the school district in 1971. As of the 2025–2026 year, there were 8161 students and 514 FTE classroom teachers.

There are seven elementary schools serving preschoolers through fifth graders, two middle schools serving sixth through eighth graders, and two high schools serving ninth through twelfth graders. There are also some alternative schools including a program for students in the Kentucky Department of Juvenile Justice system.

In August 2021, Christian County Public Schools Board voted to consolidate Christian County High School, Hopkinsville High School and Gateway Academy to a College & Career Academy High School (formerly named Hopkinsville–Christian County Academy, now changed to Christian County High School). The planned opening of the school is the Fall semester of 2026, with Christian County High School and Hopkinsville High School closing the same semester.
