Summary

Boyle County Middle School serves 655 students in grades 6–8 in Danville, Kentucky, and is one of six nearby middle schools in the comparison. Its 2025–2026 KSA results were above state proficiency rates in every reported subject. The key takeaway for families is that it also led nearby schools on the average of the available, grade-matched results, although it was not the top school in every individual grade and subject.

The school’s strongest comparisons were in grade 7 science, where 54% were proficient versus 28% statewide and a nearby-school average of about 25%, and grade 8 writing, with 66% proficient versus 48% statewide and 45% nearby. Across grades 6–8, its average proficiency was 54% in math and 61% in reading, compared with state averages of 40% and 48%, and nearby averages of 36% and 49%. Grade 8 math and reading are relative weak spots: Boyle County’s 43% in math was below West Jessamine Middle School (54%) and Kenneth D. King Middle School (45%); its 44% in reading was below West Jessamine (54%), King and John W. Bate Middle School (46% each). In all supplied subjects and grades, the Boyle County district result matched the school’s.

Results show a mixed longer-term picture: science and writing have gained ground relative to the state since 2022–2023, while the school’s social studies and editing and mechanics scores fell, and its advantage in social studies narrowed. SchoolDigger ranks the school 47th of 326 statewide, at the 86th percentile with 4 stars; its percentile has eased from 96 in 2020–2021 and 91 in 2023–2024. SchoolDigger’s 2025–2026 ranking for how well the school serves Multi-racial Students was at the 26th percentile (1 star), down from 60 the previous year; its ranking for Hispanic Students was at the 42nd percentile (2 stars). The student–teacher ratio was 16.0 in 2024–2025, the second-highest among the six nearby schools. In that same year, 49.8% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, below four of the five nearby schools but above West Jessamine’s 47.4%.
