Harlan County High School (also known as HCHS) is a public high school located in the unincorporated community of Baxter, Kentucky that opened in late 2008 to replace the county's previously separate public high schools: Evarts High School, James A. Cawood, and Cumberland High School. The school has been met with mixed criticism, with praises for its unique architecture and design and educational value.
