Data showed that Green County welcomed a total of 1,747 students during the 2022-23 school year. Among them, African American students comprised 1.1% of the student body to be the second least represented ethnicity in the county.
Among the four schools in Green County, Green County High School recorded the highest enrollment of African American students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of 11 students, making up 2.2% of the school's total student body.
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.

| Green County Intermediate School | 0.8% | 364 |
