Summary

North Bullitt High School serves 1,178 students in grades 9–12 in Shepherdsville, in Bullitt County. Its latest results show a broad academic challenge: in 2025–26, North Bullitt scored below both the state and district in all six reported KSA subjects.

Science is North Bullitt’s strongest subject relative to its benchmarks, but it still trails: 9% met the state measure, compared with 23% statewide and 13% districtwide. Social studies is its weakest compared with the state, at 12% versus 37%; among nearby traditional high schools, North Bullitt also had the lowest reported scores in social studies and editing and mechanics, and the lowest reported science score. Its social studies result was 12%, compared with a nearby-school average of 24%. Chronic absenteeism is another concern: 34% of North Bullitt students were chronically absent in 2025–26, versus 24% statewide and 23% districtwide. Locally, that rate was lower than at Bullitt Central High School, Fairdale High and Southern High, but higher than at Bullitt East High School.

Several test results have slipped over time: from 2022–23 to 2025–26, social studies and editing and mechanics each fell 10 percentage points, while the gap to the state widened in every KSA subject with a multi-year comparison. SchoolDigger ranked North Bullitt 238th of 262 Kentucky schools in 2025–26, at the 9th percentile with 0 stars; its percentile ranking fell from 28th in 2023–24. The school’s 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 18.4, compared with a 17.1 average at four nearby traditional high schools, and 55% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. A notable subgroup shift in SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves students: its homeless-student ranking fell from the 92nd percentile in 2020–21 to the 7th in 2023–24, while the overall ranking moved from the 42nd to the 28th percentile.
