Hite Elementary celebrated fifty years of service to the community last year. We are located in Middletown, Kentucky. Our enrollment of approximately 490 students, including Head Start, Kindergarten, and 1st through 5th grades makes for a learning community that is special. "Success is the only option!" This Mission Statement is threaded through every aspect at Hite, a guiding belief shared by parents, staff, and the community. We truly believe that excuses are unacceptable, and all decisions are made with student success as the focus.

Parent and community involvement are significant. The school has been recognized by the National PTA as a Parent Involvement School of Excellence, and by the Kentucky PTA as the first winner of the state award for involving dads in schools. In 2012, a Hite parent was named Kentucky State PTA “Volunteer of the Year.” Civic and service organizations provide support in too many ways to list here!

There are numerous enrichment offerings for students at Hite, with an effort to provide opportunities for varying abilities and interests. Program offerings include chess, fencing, academic teams, jump rope demo team, choir, percussion ensemble, technology teams, cross country, art classes, and hands-on science activities.

Hite strives to be a resource for families and the community. The school is well respected in the district and state, and annual accountability measures place Hite among the top tier in the school district and state.

Welcome to our school! We are a family place, where success is the only option!
