Hillsboro Elementary School is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Fleming County school district, located in Hillsboro, KY with about 189 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families.

With about 11 teachers, Hillsboro Elementary School has a student/teacher ratio of about 17:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.
