Lyle Independent School District #497 serves both the city of Lyle and the surrounding farm community.
This district is merged for purposes of athletics with Austin Pacelli, a Catholic high school in Austin, Minnesota. Lyle sports teams, formerly the Lyle Lions, are now the Lyle-Pacelli Athletics. Since the district is so small, Lyle-Pacelli frequently plays against schools with much larger enrollments and plays nine-man football.
The Lyle area was engaged in a bitter fight over a school bond referendum from 2002 to 2005. Two groups emerged in the community: "Save our Schools and Community", a group supporting construction of a new school, and "Concerned Citizens for Lyle's Future", a group opposing the construction of a new school in favor of other less expensive solutions. In 2005, Concerned Citizens for Lyle's Future hired an anti-school-bond consultant from Ocheyedan, Iowa.<ref name="2005 school consultant">Template:Cite newsTemplate:Dead linkTemplate:Cbignore </ref> The bond passed on May 24, 2005, by a vote of 449 to 343.
