Summary

Fleming County High School is a public high school in Flemingsburg, Kentucky, serving 671 students in grades 9–12. Graduation is a bright spot: 97% of students graduated in 2025–26, compared with 94% statewide and 93% in the district. The main concern is chronic absenteeism: 26% of students were chronically absent, versus 24% statewide and 20% in the district.

The school’s strongest result against nearby schools is writing, and its clearest weakness is editing and mechanics. In 2025–26, 55% of 11th graders were proficient in writing, above the 47% state rate and the 43% average at Bath County High School, Nicholas County High School and Mason County High School. In editing and mechanics, 30% were proficient, below the state’s 40% and the nearby schools’ 37% average. Math and reading were near peer averages, at 36% and 48%, respectively, though each was slightly below the state rate. The school’s reported scores match those of the Fleming County district in every subject.

Math, reading and writing have improved since 2023–24: proficiency rose 8, 9 and 10 percentage points, respectively. Social studies also gained 10 points over that period, but fell from 38% in 2024–25 to 28% in 2025–26; editing and mechanics dropped 6 points, to 30%. SchoolDigger ranks the school at the 42nd percentile in 2025–26, 151st of 262 schools, with two stars—down 10 percentile points from the previous year. Its statewide effectiveness ranking for Low Socio Economic Status Students swung from the 17th percentile in 2023–24 to the 68th in 2024–25, then to the 40th in 2025–26. For Special Education Students, it shifted from the 70th percentile in 2022–23 to the 13th in 2023–24 and the 41st in 2024–25. In 2024–25, 53% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible, and the student-teacher ratio was 16.5—lower than the average for the three nearby comprehensive high schools.
