Summary

Calloway County Middle School serves grades 6–8 and enrolls 607 students in Murray, Kentucky, in Calloway County. SchoolDigger ranks it 62nd of 326 Kentucky schools, in the 81st percentile with four stars. Its standout result is eighth-grade writing: 78% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, 30 percentage points above the state and 2 points above the district.

Writing is also a local strength: among nearby schools, only Murray Middle School scored higher in eighth-grade writing; Calloway’s 78% was 18 points above the nearby-school average. Across all six reported subject averages, Calloway was above the state, but its results were only slightly above district averages. There are important exceptions: seventh-grade reading was 49%, 1 point below the state and below the nearby-school average of 58%. Eighth-grade editing and mechanics is another relative weakness: Calloway scored 51%, compared with a nearby-school average of 56%, though it was 1 point above the district and 9 above the state.

Results over time are mixed. Eighth-grade editing and mechanics fell 18 points, from 69% in 2022–2023 to 51% in 2025–2026, while writing declined 5 points over those years, despite rebounding from 68% in 2024–2025. SchoolDigger’s overall percentile also slipped from 85 in 2023–2024 to 81, while the school retained four stars. Its student-teacher ratio was 16.1 in 2024–2025, and 57% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year.
