Carlisle County Elementary School had the highest enrollment among Carlisle County schools, welcoming 447 students during the 2022-23 school year, according to the Kentucky Department of Education.

Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 51.5% of them were boys, and 48.5% were girls.

Data also showed that the majority of students were white, making up 91.3% of Carlisle County Elementary School's total enrollment.

Among the three schools in Carlisle County, Carlisle County High School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 232 students, while Carlisle County Middle School welcomed 189 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Carlisle County Elementary School is part of Carlisle County School District, which roughly covers schools within Carlisle County and has a main office in Bardwell.

In the previous school year, Carlisle County Elementary School also had the highest number of students among Carlisle County schools.

Kentucky is in the midst of a statewide teacher shortage as turnover rates spiked to 10.9% in 2023, up from an 8.9% nine-year average. This issue is more prominent in schools with more low-income and minority students.

Data also shows that between 2019 and 2023, there was an increase of 260% in the number of available teaching posts in Kentucky schools. This often leads to larger class sizes, combining programs, and retaining staff despite potential negative impacts on teacher working conditions.
