There were 8,915 students in Jessamine County School District, 2.5% higher than the year before.
Enrollment in Jessamine County was steady with the state's trend of increasing enrollment.
Of all the students welcomed in the 2022-23 school year, 51.9% of them were boys, and 48.1% were girls.

Jessamine County School District has a main office in Nicholasville and is the only school district within Jessamine County.
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.
