Olive Hill High School

The Olive Hill High School is a former public high school located in Olive Hill, Kentucky in the United States.

Built in 1929, the school was designed as a five-bay, two and three-story load-bearing brick building by H.A. Churchill and John P. Gillig. It is a combination of Romanesque and Federal styles. Four additional classrooms were added in the mid-1950s, flanking the original building with two classrooms on either side.

One prominent feature of the building is 77 wooden windows that face U.S. 60, main street of the town.

A newer two-story classroom addition located behind the historic structure was added in 1967 with an addition for a library completed in 1971. This structure replaced a three-story classroom addition that was condemned in 1966 due fire hazards.

Additionally on the campus is a cafeteria building and workshop building. Both buildings are currently vacant and in various states of disrepair. Additional renovations of the historic building and adjoining structures are currently waiting funding.

Olive Hill High School's campus served K-12 until 1971, when West Carter High School replaced grades 9-12. It continued as a K-8 public school until 1990 when West Carter Middle School replaced grades 6–8. It continued to serve K-5 until the end of the 1993 school year, when the newly built Olive Hill Elementary opened for the 1993–1994 school year.

The school now houses the Olive Hill branch of the Carter County Public Library on its third floor and the Olive Hill Center for Arts & Heritage on the second and first floors.
