Summary

Campbellsville High School is a public high school serving 370 students in grades 9–12 in Campbellsville, Kentucky. Its latest results show very high graduation alongside a notable attendance concern: in 2025–26, 99% of students graduated, compared with 97% in the Campbellsville Independent district and 94% statewide, while 33% were chronically absent. That absenteeism rate was 7 points above the district and 10 points above the state, and second-highest among five nearby full high schools. The most important finding is that chronic absenteeism remains a concern despite the school’s exceptional graduation rate.

Academically, the school’s strengths are grade 10 reading and mathematics, while grade 11 science and social studies are its clearest weaknesses against nearby schools. In 2025–26, Campbellsville scored above the state in four of six KSA subjects and above its district in all six: reading was 52% (state 49%), mathematics 47% (state 40%), and writing 56% (state 47%). But science was 20% versus 23% statewide, and social studies was 32% versus 37%. Compared with four nearby full high schools, Campbellsville had the highest reading result, while its science and social studies scores were 6 and 8 points below their respective averages. Writing was above the state and district but slightly below the nearby-school average.

Results have moved in mixed directions: graduation rose 6 points from 2023–24 to 2025–26, and chronic absenteeism fell 4 points since 2021–22, but social studies dropped 11 points from 2022–23 to 2025–26. SchoolDigger places the school at the 63rd percentile with 3 stars in 2025–26, down 3 percentile points since 2023–24 and fourth among five nearby full high schools with rankings. Its 2024–25 student-teacher ratio was 14.8, below the nearby-school average of 16.9; 64% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. SchoolDigger’s reported subgroup rankings also stand out: Special Education Students ranked at the 5th percentile in 2023–24, compared with 66 overall, and Multi-racial Students ranked at the 28th percentile in 2025–26, compared with 63 overall—measures of how well the school serves each group relative to the same group at other state schools.
