The school district featured on the show is called "Heimlich County School District" in early episodes and flashbacks Hank and Peggy have, though in later seasons the name is changed to "Arlen Independent School District." While this is most likely a continuity error, it IS possible that schools in Arlen were originally part of a county-wide district, and the town eventually split off and formed its own separate district. It is named after Roger Staubach, a famed football player. Staubach Elementary: Hank is forced to attend an anger management class here. Bobby takes a "classic clowning" class here as well. Arlen Community College: This is where Luanne begins going after parting ways with Arlen Beauty Academy, though she ultimately aborts going here in favor of wanting to get back into a potential career as a stylist.

She is often looked down upon by her instructors and her peers, and eventually drops out, deciding to attend Arlen Community College following a strange experience. Arlen Beauty Academy: Luanne goes here in the first few seasons in an effort to become a stylist. Peggy also substituted one time at the high school, when she flunked the star football player and caused an uproar.
