Fayette County has two local public school districts: Miami Trace Local School District and the Washington City School District which both offer open enrollment.

In August of 2008 Miami Trace opened a new Centralized Elementary School which brought better coordination and logistics in educating over 1,200 students in a new state of the art facility located adjacent to their High School along State Route 41.  Miami Trace is also in design stages to also construct a new Middle School which should open in 2010 or 2011 also at the same site creating a campus for all three schools at one location.
