App Description

Taylor County School District is located in south central Campbellsville, KY and serves over 2,500 P-12 students. Superintendent Roger Cook is in his sixth year of service. The district encompasses three schools; Taylor County High School, led by Principal Laura Benningfield, Taylor County Middle School, led by Principal Tony Jewell, and Taylor County Elementary, where Donna Williams serves as principal.
The Taylor County School District’s mission is to provide an equal opportunity for all children to reach their maximum potential. Under Cook’s leadership, schools began participating in a Performance Based Education model – teachers do not teach grades, they teach students. The district’s acceleration policy gives students opportunities to move to a higher grade level if data shows they are advanced in certain academic subjects. One of the many benefits of the model is that once students have completed their high school credits in a subject, they can begin taking college credits through the Virtual Program at a significantly reduced rate.
