There were three Hawaiian students enrolled in Grant County school districts in the 2022-23 school year, the same number as in the previous year, according to the Kentucky Department of Education.

Data showed that Hawaiian students made up less than 0.1% of the 5,077 students in Grant County during the 2022-23 school year, making them the second least represented ethnicity in the county school districts.

Among the two school districts in Grant County, Grant County School District recorded the highest enrollment of Hawaiian students in the 2022-23 school year, with a total of three students.

The main offices of all districts mentioned in this article are located in cities associated with Grant 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.
