Best School Districts in the Louisville/Jefferson County, KY-IN Metro Area (2026)
This metro area crosses state lines, so it is shown as one table per state. Each state rates its districts on its own test, and a 9/10 in one state is not comparable with a 9/10 in another.
Counties are assigned to metropolitan areas using the U.S. Census Bureau's 2023 delineation, and each district is placed in the county of its NCES directory listing. Ratings come from ILEARN 2024–25 (Indiana); KSA 2024–25 (Kentucky) and are percentile-ranked within the district's own state. Always confirm your assignment by address.
