High Schools in Henry County

There is only one high school located in Henry County, Kentucky - Henry County High School. The school serves 620 students and has a mixed academic performance, with the school underperforming the state average in several key subject areas, including math, reading, and editing/mechanics. However, the school outperforms the state average in writing.

Henry County High School's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 145th out of 271 schools in 2021-2022 to 188th out of 276 schools in 2022-2023, and now 138th out of 290 schools in 2023-2024. This suggests the school's performance may be slipping compared to other high schools in Kentucky. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high-poverty student population, with nearly half (47.1%) of the students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which could be a factor in the school's academic performance.

Despite the school's academic challenges, it maintains a relatively high graduation rate of 94.4%. The district also appears to be investing resources into the school, with a spending per student of $12,393, which is higher than the national average. However, the school's mixed academic performance indicates that simply spending more may not be the sole solution to improving outcomes, and the district may need to focus on targeted interventions and support to address the specific needs of the student body.
