Summary:

Taylor County, Kentucky has only one middle school, Taylor County Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking and overall rating by SchoolDigger over the past two school years, dropping from 128th out of 327 Kentucky middle schools in 2022-2023 to 188th out of 320 in 2024-2025.

Academically, Taylor County Middle School's proficiency rates in mathematics are below the state average across all grade levels, while its reading proficiency is mixed, with 6th-grade students performing slightly above the state average but 7th and 8th-grade students below. The school does perform well in science, with 7th-grade students outperforming the state average. However, in other subjects like writing, social studies, and editing/mechanics, 8th-grade students at the school are below the state average.

The school serves a high-poverty population, with 57.47% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $19,987 and a lower student-teacher ratio of 17.5, the school's declining performance suggests that the district may need to re-evaluate its strategies to address the unique needs of the student population and improve academic outcomes.
