Summary:
ZIP code 41095 has one middle school, Gallatin County Middle School, serving grades 6–8 and enrolling 316 students. Its 2025–26 results are below state figures on most reported tests, although 8th-grade reading is an exception. The most urgent concern is 7th-grade math: proficiency fell 25 points to 22%, putting the school 17 points below the state.
There is no local school-to-school leader or trailer because this is the only school in the list. Within its results, 8th-grade reading stands out positively: 44% were proficient, 4 points above the state’s 40%—the school’s only reported result above the state. The weakest comparison is 7th-grade math, at 22% versus 39% statewide. Across grades, reading averaged 45% at the school compared with 48% statewide, while math averaged 32% compared with 40%. These results show that performance differs by subject and grade, rather than being uniformly strong or weak.
Results generally moved down from 2024–25, but a few patterns offer a more mixed picture. The school’s equal-weighted average across the ten reported tests fell 5 points, compared with a 1-point state decline; social studies improved 4 points to 33%, and editing and mechanics declined less than the state result. SchoolDigger’s ranking was 30th percentile and 2 stars in 2025–26, down from the 41st percentile and 2 stars in 2024–25, but above its 21st percentile and 1 star in 2023–24. Other context: the student-teacher ratio was 18:1 in 2024–25, and 78% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 14% in 2025–26, below the state’s 24%; the dropout rate was 1% statewide and 1% at the school when rounded (0.5% and 1.0% in the reported figures). With only one school listed, there is no local basis for comparing schools or linking these characteristics to results.
