The Boone Community School District is a public school district headquartered in Boone, Iowa.

The district, entirely within Boone County, serves almost all of the Boone city limits and the surrounding rural areas.[2] Residents of the United Community School District, which covers the remainder of the Boone city limits, Luther, and other areas,[3] may select the Boone district for secondary schooling.[4]
