Middle Schools in Butler County

There is only one middle school located in Butler County, Kentucky - Butler County Middle School. This school serves grades 6-8 and has faced consistent academic challenges, ranking 180 out of 324 Kentucky middle schools for the 2023-2024 school year with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Butler County Middle School's performance has fluctuated over the past few years, with rankings ranging from 247 out of 327 in 2022-2023 (1-star rating) to 182 out of 320 in 2021-2022 (2-star rating). The school's proficiency rates in core subjects like mathematics, reading, science, and writing are generally below the state averages. This underperformance is likely influenced by the school's high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges faced by the student population.

While the school's per-student spending of $9,537 in 2018-2019 provides some insight into the resources available, the inconsistent academic results suggest that more targeted strategies may be needed to address the unique needs of the school and its students. Ongoing efforts to improve the school's performance have yielded mixed results, and further analysis may be required to identify the most effective approaches to support student learning and achievement at Butler County Middle School.
