Bath County High School had the highest enrollment among Bath County schools, welcoming 614 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, 52.8% of them were boys, and 47.2% were girls.

Data also showed that the majority of students were white, making up 96.6% of Bath County High School's total enrollment.

Among the five schools in Bath County, Owingsville Elementary School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 591 students, while Bath County Middle School welcomed 517 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

Bath County High School is part of Bath County School District, which roughly covers schools within Bath County and has a main office in Owingsville.

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.
