SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 326 Kentucky Middle Schools

Better than 9% of Kentucky middle schools

Summary

Zoneton Middle School in Shepherdsville, Kentucky, serves grades 6–8 and enrolls 343 students, the smallest enrollment among 11 nearby middle schools. SchoolDigger ranks it 298th of 326 Kentucky middle schools, at the 9th percentile with 0 stars for 2025–2026. The most important takeaway is that Zoneton’s proficiency is below both its district and the state in every subject with a reported score.

Bullitt County and Jefferson County schools are represented in the nearby comparison. Zoneton’s relative strength is 8th-grade Social Studies: 27% met proficiency, compared with 35% in the district and 39% statewide. Its weakest subject relative to the state is Writing, at 25% versus 48% statewide and 45% in the district; among nearby schools with reported scores, only Newburg Middle was lower. Results vary by grade, too: 6th-grade Reading was 45%, tied for third-highest among nearby schools and close to Hebron Middle School’s result, while 7th-grade Math was 15%, 24 points below the state and lower than every nearby result except Thomas Jefferson Middle.

Recent results are mixed: average Reading proficiency rose from 30% in 2022–2023 to 34% in 2025–2026, while grade 8 Writing fell from 38% to 25%, and its gap with the state widened from 7 to 23 percentage points. SchoolDigger’s overall ranking improved from the 3rd percentile last year to the 9th, but remains near the bottom. Its subgroup ranking for Hispanic students is notably higher: the 40th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with the school’s overall 9th percentile. For context, the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 18, versus a nearby-school average of 16.5, and 68% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. These are contextual measures, not explanations for test results.
