There were 131 11th grade students enrolled in Hancock County schools in the 2022-23 school year, the same number from the previous year, according to the Kentucky Department of Education.

Hancock County High School welcomed most of the 11th grade students in the county, registering 124 students.

Within Hancock County schools, the highest student population was found in first grade, with the smallest class sizes seen in preschool.

Statewide, Hancock County ranked 100th in enrollment numbers. It was also ranked 100th the year before.

Despite escaping some of the pandemic's educational disruptions, Kentucky's achievement gaps have remained an issue since 2019. In the eighth-grade reading assessments, for example, Hispanic students scored eight points lower than their white peers, and the gap reached 15 points in math. Black students fared even worse, falling more than 20 points behind and facing a failure rate nearly double that of their white counterparts.
