Eminence Independent Schools
Eminence Independent Schools is one of two school districts in Henry County, Kentucky and is divided into three schools, Eminence Elementary, Eminence Middle, and Eminence High. All three schools are located on the same campus and share some of the same facilities, like a gym, cafeteria, computer lab, and library. All of these facilities provide an environment that is suitable for optimal learning. The population of the school allows for smaller class sizes and student(s) to teacher(s) ratio.
The school was established in 1902 at its current premises, but burned down in 1942. It was then rebuilt in the same location.
