Elizabethtown High School is located in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, United States. A part of Elizabethtown Independent Schools (EIS), it is commonly referred to as E'Town High School or EHS.

Elizabethtown High School ranked #7 in the state on the 2009 spring exam.

The school has a population of 775 students and employs about 50 teachers.[2] Josh Henderson has been the principal since July 1, 2024.

Through the 2019–20 school year, it served high school students in West Point, and therefore was a feeder high school of the West Point Independent School District, which only covered grades K–8.[3] This arrangement ended on July 1, 2020, when the West Point district merged into Hardin County Schools (HCS). West Point students already enrolled at EHS will be allowed to continue their education there; future West Point high school students will attend North Hardin High School.[4]
