Around 1979, enrollment in the district was increasing. That year, the Hartford Attendance Center had two fewer classrooms than needed, while the Des Moines Schools were having to close unused schools.[7]
In 2007, the district voted to suspend open enrollment partly in order to ensure that class sizes remained small.[8]
In 2008, the board of directors of the district recommended the establishment of a school foundation. The Empowering Carlisle Community Schools foundation was established.[9]
Three schools, Carlisle High School (9-12), Carlisle Middle School (6-8), and Carlisle Elementary School (PreK-3) are within the city limits. The high school, the lower elementary school, and the district headquarters are adjacent to one another. Hartford Upper Elementary School (4-5) is not within the City of Carlisle.[4] It is located in Hartford.[10]
The Wildcats compete in the Raccoon River Conference in the following sports:[11]
