There were 134 kindergarten students enrolled in Todd County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 14.1% less than the previous year, according to the Kentucky Department of Education.

North Todd Elementary School and South Todd Elementary School welcomed kindergarten students in the county, registering 67 students.

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

Statewide, Todd County ranked 89th in enrollment numbers. It was also ranked 89th 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.
