Public education in Georgetown and Scott County consists of a preschool center serving special needs and economically at-risk students aged 3–5, nine [[elementary school]]s (grades K–5), three [[middle school]]s (grades 6–8) and two [[High school (North America)|high school]]s (grades 9–12). These schools are all part of the Scott County Schools system. Plans had been in progress for an additional high school and middle school within the city limits during the 2010s due to the expanding population. The district chose not to build a new middle school, opting instead to expand one of its three existing middle schools, but opened a new high school and a new elementary school in 2019.<ref>{{cite press release|url=https://www.scott.kyschools.us/News/redistrictinginfo#sthash.b2GGTG5R.dpbs |title=Redistricting Plan Approved |publisher=Scott County Schools |date=February 15, 2018 |access-date=April 25, 2019}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=http://www.kentucky.com/news/local/counties/scott-county/article194317379.html |title=Scott County unveils school redistricting proposal.
