Fort Madison Community School District is a rural public school district headquartered in Fort Madison, Iowa. Mostly in Lee County, with a small portion in Henry County, it serves Fort Madison, Houghton, St. Paul, and West Point. It also serves the unincorporated area of Denmark.

In 2007 the district had a $16 million bond proposal for building a new K-8 campus that would replace Fort Madison Middle School and Denmark Elementary School, but voters rejected it; KHQA stated they did so "overwhelmingly".

There was a bond proposal $30 million that had been rejected three times, with the third having 59.9% voting in favor when 60% was required for a pass.
