Summary

Taylor County High School serves 819 students in grades 9–12 in Campbellsville, Kentucky, in the Taylor County district. Its 2025–2026 graduation rate was 97%, while chronic absenteeism was 25%, above the state’s 24%. The clearest overall strength is that the school’s proficiency was above the state in all six reported KSA subjects.

Math is its strongest result compared with nearby traditional high schools: 48% of students were proficient, 8 percentage points above the state and 1 point above the district. That was the highest score among the comparison schools, including Campbellsville High School at 47%. Writing is the clearest local weakness: Taylor’s 48% was below each nearby peer, including Adair County High School at 50%, Campbellsville at 56%, Marion County High School at 57%, and Green County High School at 76%. It was just above the state and district in writing, but trailed those local schools. In reading, it tied the district and was 2 points above the state.

Reading proficiency fell from 55% in 2022–2023 to 51% in 2025–2026, narrowing its lead over the state from 9 points to 2.
