History
Previously Gulf Shores was in the Baldwin County School District. In 2017 all members of the Gulf Shores city council voted to establish the city's own school system.[2] In 2019 the Baldwin County district and Gulf Shores made a formal agreement for Gulf Shores to separate.[3]
On June 1, 2019 the school district formally started its operations. This made it the first school district to separate from the Baldwin County district.[4]
The school district was scheduled to begin operations in 2019.[5] The anticipated initial enrollment was 2,250.[6]
