Edythe J. Hayes Middle School, located on the northeastern side of town, was established in August 2004. Ours is one of the most technologically advanced middle schools in Kentucky. We have roughly one computer for every two students, including two full computer labs. Every classroom has at least five computer workstations and a LCD projector. Integration of technology is a daily practice and a natural part of instruction. We continue to push the envelope to find new ways to integrate technology.
What makes our school special
Our mission statement charges the faculty and staff with engaging “all students in a safe and nurturing environment that promotes academic excellence and develops responsible, respectful leaders.” This statement goes beyond school climate — beyond high academic standards — and combines the two to create a developmentally responsive, socially equitable and academically challenging environment for our students. Our faculty and staff members work together as a seamless whole to give every child who passes through our doors the keys to success — not only in school, but also in the community. We believe in building relationships with our students that extend beyond the classroom and promote positive interactions by using our guidelines to success — the Panther Promise: Learn Daily, Laugh Often, Lead Respectfully and Live Responsibly.
