Albany Elementary School had the highest enrollment among Clinton County schools, welcoming 554 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, 52.3% of them were boys, and 47.7% were girls.

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

Among the five schools in Clinton County, Clinton County High School ranked second in enrollment numbers with 532 students, while Clinton County Middle School welcomed 515 students and ranked third in the 2022-23 school year.

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

In the previous school year, Clinton County Middle School had the highest number of students among Clinton 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.
