Satsuma City School System is a school district in Mobile County, Alabama serving the city of Satsuma.

Satsuma voted on April 12, 2011 to create its own school system[1] and began the process of forming a school board with plans to start school in the fall of 2012. The Satsuma City Council received 21 applications for the five member board, and following two rounds of interviews the Satsuma Board of Education was formed with the following members being sworn in on June 7, 2011: Linda Robbins, James B. Woosley, Diane Keasler, Jimmy Upton and Pat Hicks.[2]

The new board immediately began the work required to separate from the Mobile County Public School System. On April 5, 2012, the separation agreement between the two school boards was completed and signed.[3] In June 2012, the U.S. Department of Justice granted Pre-Clearance to the board, officially establishing the Satsuma City School System.

The Satsuma City School System is served by two schools, Robert E. Lee Elementary (K-6) and Satsuma High School (7-12). Dr. Joe D. Walters is the current Interim Superintendent.[4]
